MCPO Ret. In TN sends a link to a local article<\/a> from Tennessee about Ashley Edens, lovely widow of Army Specialist Jason Edens, whose private moment with the remains of her husband has been become another internet meme, one which she regrets. Jason was killed in Afghanistan last year in April and she was photographed grieving over his coffin and photographed by a Tennessee National Guard photographer. The photo has been falsely identified as one of actress Lea Michele mourning the loss of Glee actor Cory Montieth;<\/p>\n

Ashley Edens was too upset to talk with us on camera about this story.<\/p>\n

“She’s saddened by the memory being stolen from her, the time with her husband. Her exact words were, ‘They stole the moment with my husband,'” Jan Edens said.<\/p>\n

Channel 4 News sent a message to the operator of one Facebook page that has posted the misrepresented photo, but they did not respond.<\/p>\n

The soldier’s mother said she just wants the picture taken down, not wanting her son’s memory and his sacrifice diminished in any way.<\/p>\n

“I don’t want his memory to be confused with someone else,” she said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I see that some Hollywood news people<\/a> are working, however weakly to correct the meme. The Tennessee National Guard weighs in;<\/p>\n

While they say it’s unfortunate that picture has been misused, nothing can be done about it, because military photos are not copyrighted. They can be used by anyone.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, there quite a bit of difference between a widow mourning the loss of her warrior husband and some airhead grieving over the loss of her suicide-committing fiance who she probably would have divorced soon after the wedding anyway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
