Have you read her biography? (not just some media summary)
Politicians and people in social movements are all about creating spin about what they are doing. Have you not learned this yet?
My view is to view people as they really are, not as their image-makers make them appear.

Now you are way off, man. I don't know much about this woman, but I respect everyone that fights to stop injustice. I think they are brave. When it in addition is people who understands how to appeal to human compassion by forcing the oppressor to show his real evil face (as she did), it makes them brave and intelligent. The world has way too few of such people (Amnesty report for 2004 is not happy reading) and to honor those who stand out to make a difference (like her) is at least a minor encouragement to her and others, which I think you could offer.
