The anchor probably was given the assignment
And yesterday's media figures
Were at least interested in maintaining an air of integrity
Plus, why do you assume he was paid?
Most news media, even today, have rules in place about that
It is seen as unethical behavior
She is no doubt sincerely sickened
Today it's all fucked
But I think you ought to cut her some slack
A person is not their employer
And a journalist is not necessarily a shill
It's a noble profession saturated with hacks
Does the station make money?
Yes
That's like how things work
I'm not here to talk about capitalism
And I'm sure we're on the same side
But there are a lot of people working to make OJ look as bad as possible in this segment
And trying to correct the injustice of the legal system with the justice of public opinion
Did it work?
Yeah, mostly
You think you despise OJ?
Without the media, the murder would be a footnote in your mind
Don't let pessimism affect your argument
Or no one will listen to you
It's real advice
