It seems as if the reporters are highlighting her comments about receiving less attention. The woman wrote a book that surely must be about more than that. But, the reporters have everyone focusing on that one small part of the story - her feelings about some lack of attention.

I wonder, though... if any of the men who were captured had commented about the lack of attention given to them because they weren’t cute young girls, wouldn’t most people here agree with them?

All that said, Lynch herself was uncomfortable with the attention and the original story sold to the public. If I were in Shoshana’s shoes, I’d be glad to be the one not receiving much attention.

Well, the guy in post 26 was killed so he can't speak but he may have been offended to learn that his heroics were given to a girl that never fired a shot.

Miller is still alive, and his comments about Lynch are in post 33. I agree with him, and although I think that Johnson's language is imperfect and a little off center, I sure get her point.

Same here.
