In response to the SEC’s June 4 indictment on securities fraud, Martha Stewart purchased full-page ads in today’s major newspapers declaring her innocence, and launched a new website, which currently includes a letter/appeal from her, and a statement from her attorneys. Apparently, more information about what promises to be a high-profile case will be added to site in the future. Update on Martha’s page: According to the June 6 USA Today, Martha’s website “received 1.7 million hits in the first 17 hours.” On June 10, the following information was added to the site: Setting the Record Straight.
