I love martha and totally support her. Men are intimidated by her toughness and resolve. Screw them! As a strong independent woman myself, I would be sympathetic to her on a jury, but Im not sure so many men would.

I sure have missed you, and thanks so much for doing the 20/20 interview! I'm sure you will get a TON OF POSITIVE FEEDBACK and the WITCH HUNT WILL STOP! Bravo and you go girl!

Martha,
I have watched your show and subscribed to your magazine for several years. Due to my job loss I have not been able to renew for the past two years and I miss it terribly!! I have saved all your magazines and I have picked out all the November (past) issues and it's just like they have come in the mail.
I am enjoying them all over again...because they are timeless.........just like you Martha!! Barbara Walters asked why so many people hate you........no no no.....So many More people Love you....... Those others??? Why...they are just Jealous! They are people who just can't stand to see capable, asertive, driven and successful people like yourself. Martha.......... they DON'T count!!!
We are the ones who count!!!!
You are very much admired and loved and don't you forget it!!!
I Love You Martha..........
Pamela
As a Canadian Woman working in a Newspaper Office in small town, B.C. Canada, your story has been, "In the Front Line". This town is based on people that are country oriented & a small town attitude, but many watch your show & have thought that there was something amis. If it is possible in your time schedule to E-mail our Newspaper, we would love to have your story.

As always I was utterly impressed at the way Martha held herself during her interview with Barbara Walters. She is a model citizen and a damn good lady. Her integrity will see her through this entire ordeal.

Prosecuting martha stewart will create how many jobs? and waste how much taxpayers' money? Martha Stewart's "personal" decision to trade $40,000 worth of stock affects the American public in what way? who is being defrauded here? Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. creates jobs for thousands of hard-working americans and entertains and teaches millions more. Why destroy something healthy and good for the american people and economy? Go after the greedy corporate criminals that mismanaged and "knowingly" defrauded corporations and caused thousands of people to lose their jobs, stocks/savings, and sanity!

The questions that were asked were penetrating and representative of what I was curious about. I thought that Martha answered every question without hesitation, with honesty and from the heart. In all it was informative and gratifing to finally see and hear Martha speak about this whole affair.
Nicole Reidy
Keeping you in my thoughts! Your a great woman and do not deserve this, you gave the world style.

This is a great interview for Martha. She's one me over in the court of public opinion. She's tough, has an excellent work ethic, and is a class act. I wish her the best outcome in the trial. Yes, she will get through it will go on to even better things.
Richard Guelich
Martha is a class act. She came across sincere and strong. As always, my utmost respect goes out to her!
Melinda
Martha Stewart presented her side very well. Was very impressed on how she answered the questions--no spinning, clear and consise... Will keep her in my prayers at daily mass.

My heart goes out to Martha Stewart. Clearly she is far too intelligent to have purposefully done something illegal to make a relatively tiny amount of money. I think that she is being attacked because she is such a intelligent, ambitious and successful woman. The powers that be in this male dominated society find that threatening and even offensive. I trust that she will be acquited. I just hope that she is able to sue the SEC for defamation of character when this is all over.

I am an African American female and I am going through a similar ordeal as Martha right now. My heart goes out to anyone who is used as an "example". On a much smaller scale than Martha, my ordeal is worth a great deal of money but I too have been very successful, and typically what people want to see happen to someone who is successful and not apologizing for it is see him/her FAIL. Martha, keep your head up and I'm doing the same. My d-day is coming soon as well and all I can say is that sister, the stuff we're made of is something we were born with- hence the reason why we've been so successful. Bad publicity, "player haters", and self-ordained decision makers of our worthiness can't ever take that away.
I'm with you, and I hope things work out for you! I hope things work out for both of us!!!!
SMW
Wow, martha. all I can say is wow. Why did barbra ask "Martha, why do people hate you?" I mean seriously. How is someone supposed to know why people are mean and stupid?
Bartholomew
Good interview....believable without being apologetic or condescending
You're great and an inspiration for lots of both men and women.
Keep fighting the good fight.
Best of luck.
William M Hill
She is so graceful, I think she is a real person who has been wrongly targeted. I hope others see this real side of her. I have thought all along that she did nothing wrong. I still feel this way.
Thank You,
Alexandria Lenzinger
I think Martha is innocent. She is being made an example of because she is a successful business woman.
Hang in there Martha..
David
I think Martha is innocent. She has led a very productive life for herself, and they are just tring to bring her down because of it.We are behind you Martha all the way.
William Wagner
After watching the interview, I support Martha even more. I hope this interview shows she is a fellow human being that has worked her way to the top and deserves to stay there. Her circumstances are unfortunate and make me question the priorities of the government and the justice America prides itself on.
Sarah Hall
It seemed well done and informative.
YOU GO MARTHA!

My thoughts about the 20/20 interview:
1. She'd make a good politian.
2. If she was as careful with her decision to sell her shares as her choice of words, she would have thought twice before she sold.
3. Martha, you are a master at keeping down your emotions, keep slicing that cabbage, just don't cut your finger.
4. Barbara, you did an awsome job.
Rudy Hiebert
Good interview but I think she should not have worn the earrings. They were beautiful but they stood out.

I think the interview actually helped
Martha's public image. All we have heard
is negative in the media. It was nice to
see her as a human being. Nutley, her
mom...
She's a strong, smart business woman
and actually reminds me of my mother.
When you're a woman...at the top and
you're tough, you naturally pick up
negativity on the way up. I have seen that
many times over.
Good luck Martha!
Ms. Zuzelin Martin
I think Martha Stewart is a wonderful person, someone I would really like to know. She is being treated so unfairly and I know that she will not be convicted. God be with you Martha and you will be a better person and have a better life when this is over.
Thanks Martha
Sue Hackney
Very impressed with Martha, she comes across very honest and genuine. This whole mess is unfair, she is being singled out and that is what is a crime! She is a very powerful, wealthy woman, we would not hear one word of this had it involved some wealthy business man. Powerful women scare our society! You go Martha, I support you all the way!
Vickie
Martha was stunning in the interview and held her
own! If she were a man she would be
congratulated and admired for her
accomplishments. Instead, she is being torn
down and "made an example of."
J. Smith
I thought the interview was very interesting. It made me think about alot. I've been with Martha since the begening of these problems and I'd like it if I could get martha's email so I can speak with her.

I believe Martha is a very strong women and she will get through this. I enjoyed watching her story and hope everything goes well. She has touched so many, even people that are against her. As far as the movie, media can be so unfair but who would want to watch a movie with controversy. I never believe everything I read, watch or hear.
