I'm not saying I disagree with you.
However, if we stick with the initial article for a moment. It is possible that they didn't see how it would help to mention all the good characteristics. While it is easy to second guess what should have been done, keep mind people are people. That doesn't necessary imply that there was an intent to deceive.
You're right... people are people.
There was and has been continual emphasis on the fact that Jennifer was a mother. However, being a mother, no matter how admirable a devoted mother can be, doesn't say much about the quality of a person's character, because let's face it... there's plenty of bad mothers out there as well.
For one who didn't know Jennifer, or the quality of her character... what was presented was a picture of a run away wife (and mom).
One would assume that for someone to have been married to someone, that they would know the content of their spouse's character.
The things that they would say about their spouse, you would think, would be an accurate depiction of the character of the person that they're married to.
Most of what was said about Jennifer, came from her husband, and didn't define her character, but was moreso a character assassination based on non-character defining things.
There was never any emphasis placed on her character, or things that would define her character. There was never any emphasis placed on the fact that she had fibromyalgia.
Those not in the know, or who didn't know Jennifer, would only have the reliance of those that knew Jennifer, in order to have a proper presentation of her character.
The main person that was at the forefront of that, was her husband. He was continually in the media.
It's also possible that the characteristics were never mentioned, because they were never presented to be mentioned.
You would think that they would at least be mentioned by the husband, to implore the community to help.
One CAN'T say whether or not it was done in an effort to deceive, but one CAN'T rule out the possibility that it WAS done in an effort to deceive.
