How about some wall to wall coverage of another young woman who died yesterday?

Jennifer M. Parcell, USMC. Killed in Action, February 7th, 2007.

No, she never had a reality series. No, she was never Playmate of the Year, or married a billionaire old enough to be her grandfather, and no, her lawsuit over the estate never made it to the Supreme Court. She was just a Marine, doing her duty in a distant land. I may not agree with the mission she was on, but I sure as hell supported her.

I'm forwarding this link to CNN, and challenging them to do fifteen minutes on Marine Parcell's life and untimely death.

Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] filkertom for the link.

Speaking as a Texan, it's not quite that sordid in context. Or it could be even more sordid, I suppose.

Marshall wasn't a billionaire in life, though his estate may have approached a billion at some point. More importantly, though they met when she was merely a stripper/topless dancer, by the time they were married Smith was a millionaire model and pinup girl herself, just not a hecto-millionaire.
