"I don't think anyone's daft enough to think that she meant every woman whose husband died."

And that is exactly the point ... people who read her book would realize she was not talking about every woman. However those that ONLY read Newsweak will simply see one sentence saying "Ann Coulter says 9/11 widows enjoyed their husbands deaths." ... no context ... the readed is left to believe 9/11 widows means just that ... all (or most) 9/11 widows.

Depends on what the article said. I don't have the magazine, but everything I'm finding online specifies "four widows" and "a group of the 9/11 widows." My interpretation is that Ann Coulter is taking this out of context in order to say that Newsweek took her out of context--leading in the end to publicity and more ca$h!
