She is setting the record straight by saying, in effect: "look, don't make me into something I'm not. I never fired my weapon or fought with anybody. All I did was survive a terrible ordeal."

The only way to accomplish that is to do a primetime interview while hawking a book?

I'm thinking more about the dozens and dozens of prime time interviews, books, and movies that will never transpire as a result of her telling the truth about her orderal and not playing the role of "hero" that they all wanted her to do. If she played their game she could have rode the horse of feminist-hero off into the sunset of wealth and fame forever.

With her severe injuries and mental scars she will need the money this book will generate. She did, after all, suffer a severe spinal injury, broken arms, thighs, ankles and head injury. Not to mention the fact she was a POW, got anally raped while still broken and bleeding, and saw her comrades die.
