I expect we will see more distant relatives of dying folks crawling out of the woodwork after the Shiavo mess. They get some media exposure and their 15 minutes of fame......and maybe some of the estate. Sure didn't take long for this nephew to cash in on the Shindlers misery. I can just imagine the "ah-ha!" moment.
Mullinax is/was the media consultant (contracted) for the City of Birmingham. He knew exactly how to manipulate the media in the Terri Schiavo aftermath. You're right there will be more.
