Coming on “Today”: Journey, but no Casey Anthony.
The rock group will perform on Friday’s show. Now that’s what I call good news.
And all that speculation that NBC has an Anthony interview?
Nothing to report, the network said. NBC News evidently wants to counter some misinformation out there. This statement was posted on the “Today” Facebook page this afternoon: “NBC News has not and will not offer money for a Casey Anthony interview. No money has or will be offered, no licensing or other arrangements.”
In other Anthony news:
***The Florida Bar is done looking into Cheney Mason’s middle-finger salute after Anthony was acquitted of first-degree murder in the death of her daughter, Caylee. Mason flipped the bird at a photographer on July 5 at a downtown restaurant. The Bar says it was “an isolated incident unrelated to a legal proceeding,” WESH-Channel 2 anchor Martha Sugalski said.
***TMZ reports that Anthony’s people are trying to sell video of her shortly after her release from Orange County Jail. TMZ reported it had seen the footage of Anthony disembarking from a plane, holding a half-empty Corona beer bottle and saying, “I concur.”
And that footage would be worth what?
***What will happen to Casey’s car? George and Cindy Anthony will decide the vehicle’s fate, WESH reported. “I’ve had multiple offers to purchase it, but George and Cindy do not want to profit off it by any means,” Mark Lippman, attorney for the couple, told the station.
Still, the money would go to a foundation that the Anthonys will establish to honor granddaughter Caylee.
***That Casey Anthony Halloween mask sold for nearly $1 million on eBay. And that seems outrageous, doesn’t it?
