    Disturbing that a war hero and charity founder isn’t as recognizable -- in the bubble — as Caitlyn Jenner.http://thefederalist.com/2015/06/04/media-matters-exec-editor-for-the-nation-have-no-clue-who-marcus-luttrell-is/ …

        @daveweigel Don't think "disturbing" is the word you're looking for, Dave.

        @samsteinhp @NickBaumann This is collateral damage for my annoyance about who gets famous and who’s just an occasional human interest story

        @daveweigel @samsteinhp @NickBaumann Jenner's been famous for, what, 40 years? Not exactly a flash in the pan.

        @daveweigel -- So, you're saying you're shocked a member of the Kardashian TV show dressing as a transgendered woman is more known?

        @Hesiod2k11 Who said I was shocked? That wasn’t the word I used.

        @daveweigel -- You said "disturbing." I actually think an American war hero endorsing Rick Perry is more disturbing.

        @daveweigel -- I also find it disturbing that a war hero is more well known than scientists who fight ebola. But that's just me.

        @Hesiod2k11 I liked the point Tyson made in “Cosmos,” that average serial killer was more famous than most of the scientists he mentioned

        @daveweigel Thanks for ruining the ending of what looks like a kickass movie. Spoiler Alert next time please.

        .@willmenaker The movie is called “Lone Survivor.” It spoils itself!

        @ehaglund @daveweigel The title could have been ironic. Now I'll never know.

        @daveweigel Not that I disagree, but find any war hero and anyone ever labeled "World's Greatest Athlete" and see which is more famous.

        @gavinesq tbh if not for the reality show, Jenner would be like Lynda Carter-level famous now.

        @daveweigel That's probably true. And Jenner would still be more famous than Luttrell.
