Bill,
Sorry, even the legal definition states that she comitted treason. The climate of the day is what saved her from prosicution, not that she did not legally commit treason:
Under 18 USC 2381
: [Title 18, United States Code, Section 2381],
: "Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States,
: wages war against them or adheres to their
: enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the
: United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason
: and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not
: less than five years. . ."
Her radio spots to the US Soldiers in South Vietnam, as well as the TV and newspaper propaganda she provided in Hanoi's behalf against US policy, definately falls under the definition as stated in the US Constitution.......
