Standing Ovation After 'Raw', 'Emotional' Lewinsky Speech at Forbes Under 30 Summit

After joining Twitter earlier in the day, Monica Lewinsky drew nearly universal praise for a “raw and emotional” speech at the Forbes Under 30 Summit in Philadelphia on October 20. Lewinsky’s speech addressed her treatment in the wake of the sex scandal involving her and former US President Bill Clinton. Having apparently not talked publicly for over 13 years, her speech was entitled ‘Monica Lewinsky and the Internet’s Reputation Shredder’.

Reaction to the speech was immediate and enormously positive from those attending the Summit and selection of the best reaction to Lewinsky’s speech is gathered below. Credit: Twitter/various
