My email to CNN written in haste:

Frankly, I am disgusted with the quality of coverage given this woman. I see these polls showing a high percentage of people wanting Terri's tubes pulled.

The problem with that is the public are told over and over again by the media that she is a vegetable, etc. Maybe some of your viewers wouldn't want to live that way, but Terri left no instructions. And for us to "mind read" and assume she wants to die is irresponsible. We should err on the possibility that Terri might want to live. She was denied therapy. What do you guys expect her condition to be? Why don't you put value on human life instead of constantly tearing it down because a person is not "productive" or "strong" in your eyes. I'm sick and tired of the culture of death.

I think your company should change your coverage and come to this women's defense, someday you might need defending.

Regretfully,

"The problem with that is that the public are told over and over again that she is a vegtable exc."

Yep, that's it, and that's why the polls are showing so many people in favor of starving Terri to death. They are totally un-informed. Helping Mike S starve his disabled wife to death-
Isn't this just something the media can be really "proud" of(wretch!!!).

As for CNN, they are totally useless/lazy. No wonder Fox News runs rings around them in the ratings. They are at least trying to give both sides of this story.

On a different note, I noticed they are going to try and overturn the Fl Legislature

-1st thing-Everyone in the Fl. Leg. needs to constantly remind the public that when the libs are talking about "overturning", they mean to starve Terri to death, that's what this is about.
- Terri signed no living will,
-Her husband is suspicious.
- We are talking about life and death here , not some legal mumbo-jumbo.
- Terri dies-is executed by starvation- if the left succeeds.

Also, I heard Florida has laws that prohibit euthanasia right? Terri has no terminal illness, is not on oxygen , or anything other than the feeding tube. If you STOP GIVING FOOD AND WATER to any living being-IT WILL DIE.
This is undisputed fact
So denying Terri food and water is EUTHANASIA isn't it?

Sorry for the over-use of "bold" in my post, but this seems so simple. Why do so many people NOT get it?
