Notice they said Ann said widows of 9-11, not particular ones that she mentions in her book.

They lumped them all in, didn't say she was speaking about those that were political activists looking for immunity from criticism.

That kind of fact error should be actionable.

I stand with Ann...No sane person would suggest a wife reveled in the tragedy of that day, but the 4 Jersey girls certainly have enjoyed the celebrity aftermath. That's the only way to read this and Coulter is correct.

The double whammy is that the publicity is generating nice books sales where the REAL lib killing occurs. Love her.

My Question is...why didn't they crawl all over these articles, essentially about the same subject:

Published on Thursday, May 13, 2004 by the New York Daily News

Wall Street Journal vs. 'Jersey Girls'
by Lloyd Grove

Wall Street Journal pundit Dorothy Rabinowitz - who last month penned an acid assault on the "Jersey Girls," four 9/11 widows who've dared to criticize the Bush administration - received some payback yesterday at the hands of "Jersey Girl" Kristin Breitweiser.

The 33-year-old widow of portfolio manager Ron Breitweiser, who died in the collapse of the World Trade Center towers, gleefully shared with the Daily News Rabinowitz's intemperate and insulting response to Breitweiser's recent op-ed submission to the Journal enumerating "systemic" problems with government efforts to meet the terrorist threat.

The rest of the story...

Exactly. They are lying. Blatantly.

"I had prepared to meet Ann Coulter with the aim of finding out how on earth any human being could turn out to be so extreme. What was her upbringing? When had she formed these opinions? Why was she so angry?

Reporterette reveals blatant bias..... of course, almost any lib/left journalist is going to view any conservative as "so extreme"...... hey, dippy reporterette, how about we conduct an inquiry to determine how on earth any human being can be SO VAPID as you and most of your fellow libs?

I caught that distortion right away as well.

Those who read the book will know better, and hopefully understand her very valid point.

Those who wouldn't read it anyway will keep spewing nonsense and fomenting misconception.
