WASHINGTON (AP) — The model whose face appeared on the much-maligned Obama health care website says she felt intimidated by harsh public criticism of the program.
The woman, who identified herself only as "Adriana" in an interview with ABC News, says she was never paid for appearing on the website's home page.
Adriana, who is from Colombia, says in the interview broadcast Wednesday that reaction to the website amounted to, quote, "some form of bullying." She says she doesn't know "why people should hate me because it's just a photo."
