yea, the media is shitty....but certain people are forgetting that its THEM...hense my arguement. its' "jessica this and jessica that" when in reality, its just the shitty ass media. everyones bitching about her and making it seem like she WANTS this attention and is asking for it....

yes, i was referring to u, also.
AND SPOOD--i didnt read ur whole post...but i read up till the part where u mentioned that she is *WHITE*...in case u forgot, there was also an african american *woman* who was captured who ALSO got a lot of media attention. this has NOTHING to do with her race.
i do agree with you and everyone else that, maybe she shouldnt have gotten the title of war hero and such...but it still doesnt change the fact that people, like me, look up to her...and that she did DO something...she fought for your country. are you doing it? no. is Clickwir doing it? i dont see it. so, yes, she DID do something...she left this country to fight for it and she put her life on the line. THAT is SOMETHING to me.
and just to clarify...i believe this movie thats coming out on NBC "portrays the story of Jessica Lynch and the men who saved her"..at least thats what ive heard on the commercials.
