Jury selection begins today in the trial of Danny Masterson. Wow, we can tell you that for some people, it’s been an incredible struggle and a harrowing journey to get to hear those words. We know you’re seeing a number of “curtain raiser” articles from big media outlets, and they’re doing a good job laying out the basics and the background of this trial. But we hope you have had a chance to prepare in real depth with the series of articles we put together in the last week…
My local news paper did an article on Weinstein's trial, but nothing about Masterson. I will have check out the tabloids and see what they are saying, if anything.
Tony, your 'consolation prize' might result in some lines on a tabloid site. Now, if only they honestly attribute your work to you. The Masterson marathon is just beginning and the questions asked of potential jurors will be interesting to see. Come on Lady Justice, serve up some justice. Please.
One thing I always liked about preparing for a jury trial was getting the juror questionnaires prior to trial and deciding which ones we absolutely wanted on our jury and which ones would be a liability.
That being said, actual jury selection is a snooze fest. I hope you have a couple of Red Bulls hidden away because it gets monotonous.
Since you will not have access to the questionnaires, you will be playing a guessing game as to why an attorney rejects a potential juror. However, we know we can depend on you to pick up on nuances.
"At least for the next couple of days the only reporter in the room will be there representing the Underground Bunker."
That's only right and fair. After all, for years you've been the only reporter to give a voice to the women.
Thank you Tony! So great to know I can always check in with you.

Glad to know you are there, hope you get credit due for the coverage

I believe Lisa went back to the fold and is in the fold as well. Always hard to predict her though.
