MSM still gets it WRONG!
From today’s Orlando Sentinel:
Early this week, the 2nd District Court of Appeal in Lakeland or Pinellas Circuit Judge George W. Greer could end her parents’ seven-year legal battle to keep their daughter alive, paving the way for her husband to carry out what he says were her wishes and remove the feeding tube that sustains her unconscious state.
THIS is unconscious???

If so, his lawyer says Michael Schiavo would be authorized to have the feeding tube disconnected immediately.
Or either court could hand Bob and Mary Schindler something they have been successful at gaining in the past: more time to pursue other appeals.
In seven years, the Schindlers have won few court rulings. Again and again, Greer and the Lakeland appeals court have agreed their son-in-law provided convincing proof that his wife would have rejected the feeding tube that has kept her alive since she suffered a heart attack in 1990, enduring precious minutes without oxygen.
I am appalled at how they all continue to present one side of the story!

Mainstream Media still gets it WRONG
THIS is unconscious???
As usual, only one side of the story, and not the side that would spare her life.

Frustrated
I will not judge this mother and her decision… I will however judge this article written by Maya Bell at the Orlando Sentinel. Ms. Bell is propagating the same lies about Terri that have been told in the media since this case began. Too bad that th…

Great job Beth-I too blogged about Ms Bell’s piece today and glad you brought up about the so-called “convincing proof” I missed that part in my blog. I also emailed Ms. Bell a link to my blog entry and asked for feedback and her comments.
