anyone who gets news from the BBC is an anti trumper…just because they are worldly.

As someone who does not care for potty humor 
to the thread title change.
NY1 = true New York source of news
Sadly only available on Spectrum
Surprised no 1010 WINS
Guess there aren’t any cabbies on the jury
Used to watch NY1 back when I could. They literally would have newscasters reading the newspaper out loud while holding the page in front of the camera, just wonderful.
I also used to read the Post on the Subway back before smartphones.
That’s the only one I don’t recognize. Everything else I would have to mark as a source of news, at least indirectly. And ofc not all sources get equal weight.
I would also have accepted Good Day New York on Fox 5. Sadly longtime cohost Greg went on to a job at OANN.
the other side of that is will that susceptible person start to feel like all that evidence and the jury room is ganging up on them and their values?
rage bait media continues to work when you shut the tv off. these people justify bull shit every single day, trump’s lawyers will give them one little nugget to cling on to making the mountain of numbers and diagnostics and proof irrelevant.
man this just made me wonder if i could NOT tell you guys if i was a juror.
like, i objectively know that telling no one ever is the way to go. but like… i feel like i would anyway

Not sure how true this is. Thought I heard a study where Fox watchers switched to CNN for a month and their biases towards conservative lies got cut way down

For the love of God don’t tell us you’re on the jury. That’s a great way to get a mistrial or a conviction reversed.
that’s different than going from watching fox news to sitting in a room with a bunch of people that don’t think like you do.
I’ve never served on a jury, but it’s my understanding that when you’re in such a controlled environment and subjected to evidentiary facts for hours on end and possibly days straight, it can do a lot to rid yourself of preconceived notions. Now take that into a jury room with 11 other people. It makes sense to me that you could lose some of your Fox News brain rot
It can also cause you to come up with some very novel theories that have nothing to do with the case being argued. This is very common on juries. The best strategy when thinking about juries is to avoid trying to figure juries out. It’s a fool’s errand because nothing and everything can make sense to a juror and jury in a moment.
I don’t doubt it. There have been some very puzzling verdicts (like cops acquitted after being caught on video committing cold blooded murder), so nothing would surprise me. But it would be nice to be able to have some faith in our jury system

In case anyone else hasn’t paid any real attention to the history/details of this NY case, I thought this was a pretty good summary.

D. Pecker will set the narrative. How could it be otherwise?
