Jane Fonda Runs Through Stunning Array of Responses to Chris Wallace Grilling On ‘Hanoi Jane’ Incident

‘And I was — I was like a limp noodle, what I had experienced and what I had seen, I just — I wasn’t able to resist’

EXCERPT:

FONDA: “It was a mistake to go, I never wanted to go to any military installations. It was the last day of my two week time there. And I was I was like a limp noodle, what I had experienced and what I had seen, I just I wasn’t able to resist, they said we’re gonna take you out here today. And I didn’t even think and they sang me a song and I’m — made me laugh. I sang a song. That’s what made me laugh. And it was a terrible mistake because of the image that it showed, which was not at all what the reality was. And you know, maybe I was set up but I was an adult, I’m gonna take responsibility for it. If I was Vietnamese, I probably would have tried to do the same thing, you know, but I should not have done that. I should not have gone.”
