Watch Live: Jill Abramson's Speech at Wake Forest Commencement

Former New York Times Executive Editor Jill Abramson delivered Wake Forest University's commencement address on Monday morning, her first public remarks since she was abruptly fired last Wednesday.

Abramson had been scheduled to be the graduation speaker well before her dismissal from the Times, but her speech will now be picked over by the media world for any clues she may have given about the events of the last week. Wake Forest is live streaming the event, and you can watch live here on Mashable:

Have been friends more than 40 years with @JillAbramson; never prouder of that than this morning. "Courage is grace under pressure."
