Read Deanna Wrenn's story about the home coming. Objective reporting.

ELIZABETH -- Jessica Lynch looked and sounded great, residents and visitors said after she rode through town on a Mustang convertible.
But many wanted to get a longer glimpse of the 20-year-old Army private they consider a hero.
"She looked absolutely beautiful," said Angie Kinder, who came from Huntington with her two girls, Grace, 4, and Caroline, 1. "I expected her to look worse."
People started lining up along Elizabeth's main street, W.Va. 14, as early as 8 a.m. Tuesday. By the time Lynch rode down the street, swamped by photographers and smiling, people were ready to see her.
They crowded sidewalks and waved flags, screaming "Welcome home Jessi!" and cheering. The Wirt County High School band played, hoping Lynch's motorcade might stop for a minute.
Instead, Lynch was out of sight within seconds.

Is that "objective reporting"??? Think not! It is a rambling collection of "words" by a writer more suited to pulp romance novels. Any editor is going to pull that garbage apart.
This was a "non event". |
