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!

It is the job of a good journalist to at the very least report all of the facts. By simply calling the Jersey Girls "9/11 widows", Newsweak was not giving the reader all of the information. This is very typical of the MSM in not labeling left wing activists. The reader is often left without knowing the political proclivities of the person in question.
Newsweak could have been precise and called them the 9/11 widowed self named "Jersey Girls" supporting John Kerry. But that would have given the reader too much info in their mind.
