" I only recently became aware of her true status. I had thought she was brain dead, and on a respirator. The media has been withholding the truth."

The same with me. Until I saw Terri's video on Hannity and Colmes.
Tonight on NBC Nightly News, Brian Williams intoned that she had " been kept alive by machines for 15 years."
There is absolutely no excuse for such sloppy reporting.
Of course, he then showed video of the Husband of the Year fussing over Terri when he had her out for an excursion, early on in her disability. And amazingly-she wasn't hooked up to any machines. But,Brian didn't seem to notice.
Then on the Fox roundtable, Dr Ceci Connally pronounced Terri as being " in a coma," for 15 years.
She said it twice and then Brian Wilson reeled her in and she " corrected " herself to PVS.

There seems to be a euthanasia agenda with most of the main stream press.

I haven't heard any of them pointedly tell the uninformed masses that it may take up to two weeks for Terri Schiavo to slowly die, and she is really going to die of dehydration and painful kidney failure.

I find that sickening. BTW, I recall the media LOVED Dr. Kevorkian...
