I sat through both LKL and Greta tonight. (Maybe next time, Jackie!!) I would just like to say that I have seldom seen such flagrant butt-kissing as they engaged in on Larry King--even though that sort of thing is a frequent activity on his show. They went on and on about Cochran, as he preened. Then they went on and on about Gloria, as she sat there beaming. Regardless of the actual abilities of either of them, it was still sickening.

But then Greta topped that by having a segment on "who is Mark Geragos?" PUH-LEEZE! As if anyone could avoid seeing his rodent-like face everywhere!

Oh, and I was wondering why all the objections to hearsay were being sustained that first day with a lay witness. And then I see a clip in which Geragos is saying, "Right now the state's police witnesses are testifying to what they saw and did, and are also relating HEARSAY TESTIMONY that they heard from other persons."

This "Prop. 115" that they keep referring to is apparently the operable law on hearsay for CA preliminary hearings (and probably for other types of hearings as well.)
