Monica Lewinsky Abruptly Ends Interview After Being Asked an "Off Limits" Bill Clinton Question
Monica Lewinsky abruptly ended a recent Q&A in Jerusalem after having to deal with the utter bullshit of having her very first question be about former President Bill Clinton. The question in, uh, question was this: "Recently in an interview in NBC News, former President Clinton was rather irate when he was asked if he’d ever apologized to you personally. He said he apologized publicly. Do you still expect that apology?"
Obviously, Monica-an accomplished author and activist-has other things to talk about than Bill Clinton, and made that clear by removing herself from the situation. "I’m so sorry," she said before walking off stage. "I’m not going to be able to do this." The moment was captured on camera, and shared on Twitter:
Monica explained her decision on Twitter, saying the following:
"After a talk today on the perils and positives of the Internet, there was to be a 15 minute conversation to follow up on the subject of my speech (not a news interview). There were clear parameters about what we would be discussing and what we would not. In fact, the exact question the interviewer asked first, she had put to me when we met the day prior. I said that was off limits. When she asked me it on stage, with blatant disregard for our agreement, it became clear to me I had been misled. I left because it is more important than ever for women to stand up for themselves and not allow others to control their narrative. To the audiences: I’m very sorry that this talk had to end this way."
No words, only TONS of applause.
