From the Paper:
"Things are looking up for Stewart; she has a new line of DVDs and a new baking book that hit bookshelves last fall; indeed the "makeover of Martha Stewart itself is a big hit," Naughton explains. Naughton goes on to explain that because Martha, 63, voluntarily went to jail, rather than remaining free on appeal to fight the issue into higher courts, her "comeuppance" was transformed into a "comeback." By going in to jail voluntarily, Naughton explains, "she tapped a dormant wellspring of sympathy"; after all, the "bad boys from Enron, WorldCom and Tyco" were all still "walking free" and Martha has never been accused of "bilking investors" or stealing from the company, the way the Enron, et al, executives are accused of behaving.
