I can't think of a reason why this would be faked, but it just looked odd to my untrained eye.
In the one article she had the quote from MASH about "..pulling down your pants and sliding on the ice".
I wonder if that's what she was tring to do when she peed on the airplane aisle?
And furthermore I would guess that "Catherine Mayo" is not her given name, but rather an assumed one. Why do I say this? Because "Catherine Mayo" is the Pakistan-loving author of a book written in 1927 called "Mother India" which made her name a synonym for India-bashing. "When Catherine Mayo brought out her notorious book "Mother India," Mahatma Gandhi called it a "drain inspector's report." A 69 year old woman today would have been born in 1936 or 1937.
I'd say it's even odds that her stunt was purposeful and that she is far more lucid than her lawyer claims.
I caught that too. The picture is real, if you blow it up you can see that the white outline is an effect of the light on her hair, it does not show evidence of tampering.
Dress her down to make a good "case".
To me, anyone who slashes the throats of the air staff (close hand to hand and premeditated murder of total strangers) and deliberately crashes a plane into a building to kill thousands of other strangers is mentally ill.
But not "warped" enough to excuse the behavior or escape a death sentence.
And in the wake of 9-11, Robert Reid, and others. If you go bug**** in the air, the use of lethal force to take you down should not be debated.
I don't recall the press being this sympathetic about the corporate executive who had a "bad reaction" between his medication and drinks and deficated on a food tray.
"I guess she just had a bit of a bad time on the plane, and everybody's a little paranoid,"
I'd say peeing on the floor is a bit more than "a bit of a bad time".
No its real. The halo around her head is probably just some backlighting, although it does look like a white fringe from pasting. Somebody may have thought her head blended into the background too much and put a little line around it to bring it out.

As a Vermonter used to 6 months of snow...
Notice she discusses Plato a lot for someone who is "barely lucid".
I wonder how she got those things on the plane so easily!
When was that photo taken? She doesn't look 60 there.
Link inside this thread. Surprise, she's a "peace activist" and a Bush hating journalist.
This is what happens when liberals attack.
So many South Park quotes come to mind.
OK - I just had to check the DUmpster:
