It was so overblown in the media. Men have done far worse but received scant attention but, most importantly, evaded prosecution Ken Lay was undergoing prosecution at the same time for FAR worse (I'd know, being a lifelong Californian), yet the newscasts gave a miniscule of coverage juxtaposed with Martha. I'd say it's both a case of her being in a man's world and building an empire from scratch. Much of these men were fortunate to have a silver platter bestowed upon them from birth....Martha, through blood/sweat/tears, elevated her business to international boundaries within a minimal amount of time

As pointed out in other comments, what she did, while illegal, is something that is practiced, every day, by many, many of our highest level politicians without any pushback or consequences at all. Yes, she’s a celebrity, which I’m sure caused her to be viewed, and possibly treated, somewhat differently than others in “Yale”, but she also handled it with an amazing level of grace and dignity, as well as humor.

Shes got one of the greatest senses of humor ever...especially in showbusiness. She moved on while cracking jokes and yet again reinvented herself. She was so strong during this. Ive often felt she was a scapegoat for her business associates and lawyers.

Wow. So inspiring. She does not play the victim. I admire her attitude so much.

Good for her for having a sense of humor about what happened to her, especially given that many politicians do this day in and day out with no consequences! That would make me mad if I were her!

I like when she said, she had every week a guest instead of visitor. Super smart lady! Highly disciplined, intelligent and even funny.

Love that she was more concerned for her employees than for herself. What a beautiful soul.

Love Martha she’s a rebel ! She has came back stronger than ever!

I think she showed immense class, dignity and humor in her response to it, and she serves as a great example of how to deal with her situation with dignity. She never denied what she did, and she accepted her punishment with honesty and integrity, and without whining or throwing a tantrum, as many do. I think she would be a great example to young people of how to behave as an adult after being caught doing something wrong. Admit it, accept responsibility for it, and accept your punishment without complaint, then move on. It’s not as if she killed someone, after all.

Well, that summer every invite for dinner included baskets -- it was our summer of baskets in Houston, Texas. Lots of fun - thank you Martha Stewart. I did write you at "Yale" and didn't get an answer, didn't really expect an answer.

I love Martha! The irony of the whole mess, as I remember it, was that she was never convicted of insider trading. As the district attorney put it, “This is about lying.” She made the stupid mistake of lying to authorities and got indicted for it. Had she just been honest and admitted the illegal trade up front, admitted it was a huge mistake, then offered to take back the stock and pay a penalty, all she would have gotten was a hefty fine and a slap on the wrist. But fear and hubris got in the way, and she paid the price. On the witness stand, her best friend, Mariana Pasternak, who, along with Mariana’s children, would appear on Martha’s holiday specials, was forced to throw Martha under the bus. Martha never forgave nor spoke to her again. So sad, and I hope lessons were learned.

She even makes jail sound like an adventure.
