Sheehan, too, may find herself, as Breitwester did, standing forlornly beneath a placard announcing her grief and loss, hoping that some reporter will stop and give her the jolt of celebrity that substitutes in a twisted culture for the comfort of real compassion.

Outstanding comment.

This guy hits it on the head. The MSM selectively picks their grieving activistis such that those activists are held out as representing a point of view of all persons similarly situated. In fact, it is quite the opposite. Most of the 9/11 families did not share the Joisey Bimbo's views nor do most Iraq families share Cindy Moonbat's views (including, evidently Cindy Moonbat's family and, quite possibly, even her husband).
