Michelle Obama still a charmer: #tellusatoday
Some critics say first lady Michelle Obama gets too much exposure. We asked followers on Twitter what they thought. Comments are edited for clarity and grammar:
I don't think Michelle Obama gets more coverage than other recent first ladies who chose to take an active role.

Not too much at all! It's refreshing to feel connected to the first family. If that comes from media exposure, so be it.
— @thekevinbianchi
She should be exposed as long as the appearances meet her projects' goals. The one at the Oscars was a mistake.
— @AHormag
Good riddance to the days of women being seen and not heard. It's phenomenal to see a well-versed first lady.
— @7thRHO
Yes, it's too much. There is nothing humble about her; her head gets bigger every day.
— @Whatfour
Coverage is good when she is getting attention for helping with city farms, but bad when it is for fashion and glamor.
— @rjbelmonte
The amount of her media exposure is based on the "wow formula." She has the "wow"; hence, she gets the photos and publicity.

I like seeing positive news for a change. Michelle Obama, politics aside, generally is a very positive person.
