| | The Unknown and Deadly Side of the Whitewater Scandal |
 | | Whitewater was only a pretext set up by Jim McDougal and the Clintons to milk millions of dollars from the SBA, banks, Arkansas Development Finance Authority, and Madison Guaranty Savings & Loan (which was later bailed out by us taxpayers to the tune of $65 million). | | | You must understand the central fact about the Whitewater Development Corporation: It was not the main crime. | | | Using Whitewater as a prop, Bill and his partner Jim McDougal milked, by my rough estimate several million dollars from the SBA and at least five or six banks and S&Ls, starting with the Bank of Kingston. |

| | How Is the Enron Scandal Like Whitewater? By Chris Suellentrop |
| | The Whitewater scandal began in March 1992 during the Democratic presidential primary, when the New York Times ran a front-page story questioning Bill and Hillary Clinton's business partnership with Jim McDougal, the owner of a failed savings and loan. | | | They're both business scandals, though from that perspective one is clearly bigger than the other. | | | Did McDougal use his SandL, Madison Guaranty, to illegally subsidize Whitewater? |

| | Background |
| | The BCCI scandal and the savings and loan crisis are complicated by near-incomprehensible numbers, multitudes of players, and the heightened secrecy that often protects negligent and criminal behavior. | | | The "pack journalism" approach of the BCCI investigation also appeared in the media coverage of the savings and loan scandal. | | | The crisis was first exposed in the media by three little-known reporters from small papers who pooled their information and discovered that massive fraud, much of it interconnected, permeated the savings and loan industry. |

| | If the savings and loan scandals of the 1980s reveal anything, they demonstrate what has often been stated as a maxim in organized crime research: that corruption linking government, business, and syndicates is the reality of the day-to-day organization of crime. | | | The savings and loan scandal of the 1980s has been depicted in a myriad of ways. | | | Our interest is in the savings and loans as living, breathing organisms that fused criminal corporations, organized crime, and the CIA into a single entity that served the interests of the political and economic elite in America. |

| | He made few waves until suddenly he found himself on television trying to explain himself as one of the "Keating 5," five U.S. Senators who became enmeshed in the scandal involving the collapsed Lincoln Savings and Loan and the financial machinations of now convicted cheat Charles Keating. | | | NEW REPUBLIC, Sept. 9, 1991--Calling McCain part of the "Senatorial Lincoln Brigade," the NEW REPUBLIC reported that Keating, while bankrupting his Savings and Loan, had channeled $1.4 million to the campaigns or causes of the five Senators, who in turn pressured the Savings and Loan regulators to "back off our friend." | | | Reports from a variety of U.S. publications tell of the involvement of McCain in the ever-widening scandal. |

| | At the conference, Labaton concluded that it was "misleading...to suggest that the story was completely missed until 1989," and he is correct in saying that reporters and editors did not altogether overlook the savings and loan scandal. | | | Editorial mismanagement, a confused set of incentives for presenting the news, and the coziness of the media with the Washington establishment all contributed to the less than zealous approach adopted by the mainstream media in covering both the BCCI and the savings and loan scandals. | | | In the case of the savings and loan crisis, the editors of the nation's largest newspapers simply failed to gauge the importance of the story. |

Three years later the institution was belly up at a cost of $1.6 billion to tax payers to bail out. | | | The Savings and Loan industry had been experiencing major problems through the late 60s and 70s due to rising inflation and rising interest rates. Because of this there was a move in the 1970s to replace the role of S&L institutions with banks. | | | The problems occurred in the Savings and Loan industry as they relate to theft because the industry was deregulated under the Reagan/Bush administration and restrictions were eased on the industry so much that abuse and misuse of funds became easy, rampant, and went unchecked. |

| | Federal officials accused Oldenburg of engineering a paper deal to cover other debts as the savings and loan scandal unfolded, but federal indictments never produced a conviction. | | | That was the year he hooked up with flamboyant San Francisco financier J. William Oldenburg, the one-time owner of the Los Angeles Express of the now-defunct United States Football league, who was soon to be caught in the middle of that era's savings and loan scandals. | | | In the end, the project was never built and Oldenburg sold the Richmond land -- which he reportedly bought for under $1 million in the '70s -- to another of his reported holdings, the Salt Lake City-based State Savings and Loan Association, for $55 million, a sum federal authorities said was wildly inflated. |
