I think that her publicist is missing the whole "anonymous" part of Alcoholics Anonymous.
I think that it's great she is going - but to advertise through ones' "publicist" is not exactly embracing humility - a core principle of AA.

I don't think there's a rule in AA that a member can't disclose HIS or HER participation, just can't reveal identify of others in the group.

I agree on both your points. The thing that I take out of this anonymous or otherwise is that she is thinking about drinking and what it is doing to her and how it affects her and those around her.

It looks to me that the article states she was 'outed' by the New York Post.

I think her publicicst was responding to reports. If a famous actress shows up at AA people will recognize her.
