Matt Taibbi, who's been covering the trial for Rolling Stone, was just on with Aaron Brown. Taibbi said the whole thing was a joke. Brown countered that it was about whether a boy was molested. Taibbi said that's not what it was about - it was about gawking at a celebrity. Kids get molested all the time and 2200 reporters don't show up. Brown asked if it made him feel dirty to cover it. He said yes, it drove him closer to suicide.
