Her page:
Her father is Bernard Lewinsky, an oncologist, who is the son of German Jews who escaped from Nazi Germany and moved to El Salvador.
Her father's page:
Lewinsky's parents, Susi and George Lewinsky, were German Jews who left Germany in the 1920s, and settled in El Salvador.
So his parents escaped from Nazi Germany in the 1920s? Oh boy, but escaping from Nazi Germany is always a good story.
@Truc Bizarre, the lede is incorrect now, as you point out. The previous version included "gained international celebrity status" which isn't optimal either. Do you have a suggestion for a full re-write of the first paragraph? Commander Keane (talk) 08:31, 10 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
It might be better to start with her current activism and then in the second paragraph note the Bill Clinton involvement and go from there. –Muboshgu(talk) 16:08, 10 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
I'm not a native English speaker so I'm not going to write an encyclopedia in English. It would end up looking like this: which by the way can be reverted because it's already stated in the following paragraph. Truc Bizarre (talk) 04:17, 12 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

“In 1992, she began a five-year affair with Andy Bleiler, her married former high school drama instructor.”
when a high school teacher sleeps with a current or former student before they’re 30, “HE” began an affair. Surely we can re-word this and stop victimizing this woman. 24.140.204.84 (talk) 18:19, 16 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
