Sounds on balance as if the Israeli News company is lying to us. Lying, but boosting their audience ratings. A shame, but good on her.

Quote: "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 ... I left because it is more important than ever for women to stand up for themselves and not allow others to control their narrative." In response, the Israeli News Company, which sponsored the event and employs the interviewer, said it had honoured all its agreements with Lewinsky and her requests.

But they didn't even have sex? Ask President Clinton. Certainly he didn't lie. Oral sex isn't sex, right?

She had a choice then and now. She is a legal adult then and now.

Israel USA connection confirmed. She had the right though. Off topic.

If the journalist violated the pre-arranged agreement, then Lewinsky had the right to stop the interview. She was not there to talk about the 20 year old incident. It seems the interviewer tried to take advantage of her by throwing in that question. Monica took control of the situation in a way she was unable to do 20 years ago. Good for her.

I've always had sympathy for her. I doubt that any of us would want to be defined for the rest of our lives for something we did in our early 20's.

And as events showed she may have been naive but she was never malevolent. I wish her well, always.
