The Fonda trip became unforgettable because it infuriated Americans,
especially Americans in uniform, many of whom still regard her as a traitor. She
praised the North Vietnamese, posed for a photo at a Communist anti-aircraft gun
emplacement, made several radio broadcasts for the Communist North Vietnamese in
which she called American military leaders "war criminals," then when some of
the POWs returned home and described mistreatment by the North Vietnamese, she
said Americans should "...not hail the POWs as heroes, because they are
hypocrites and liars."

Too bad he didn't post the opening paragraph...
The Truth: This story hearkens to a real visit to North Vietnam by Jane Fonda in July of 1972, but the stories about betraying POWs is not true.
Credit goes to John T for catching the Ranger in this lie.
