See, this is what happens when the press doesn't give the full story or full quote for that matter. It changes the "takeaway" in some cases so that the reader who just gets the "bite" may be shaking his head. It's just unusual to see it happen to the "other side", IMO.
And quite frankly, if I saw a child dehydrated and dying of thirst, would I stop and notice his clothing - or lack of it? Would anyone? She's not wrong. At least not in this instance.
