Jerry Springer refuses to interview Casey Anthony

By Alexandra Heilbron on July 11, 2011 | 3 Comments


Jerry Springer is denying rumors that his show offered Casey Anthony $1 million for a televised interview with her parents, her brother and herself. Springer’s spokesman Gary Rosen says the report, which featured in Star magazine, is completely untrue. He released a statement that read: “There is absolutely no truth to this story whatsoever. The Jerry Springer Show has not made any monetary offer to Casey Anthony and her family to appear on the programme. Nor will we.” Springer himself denied the report to TMZ on Saturday, saying, “God as my witness, I would never interview her. You could pay me the million dollars, I wouldn’t do it.” Anthony was acquitted last week on charges of first-degree murder, aggravated child abuse and aggravated manslaughter in the 2008 death of her two-year-old daughter Caylee. She’s due to be released this Wednesday from a Florida jail.

    I guess so much for non-bias journalism (if he was thinking his show would be considered journalism if they scooped a story like that)…He’s alerady decided the jury was wrong and he isn’t neutral. Public opinion wins every time.
    I’m not saying she did it or didn’t. I was not in the court room and I took all media stories with a grain of salt. One I couldn’t help but turn off cause clearly they were trying to make something that didn’t seem to be happening.
    Meh, my life goes on with or without this verdict.
