To continue along Gawker's
P.R. fiend theme at the Martha Stewart trial, is it really a good idea for Martha's defense team that
Rosie O'Donnell is at the trial, trying to bribe prosecutors with M&Ms? She was there yesterday, as Sam Waksal's secretary testified that Martha called Sam to demand what was going on with ImClone. Today, things will get more sensational, Rosie O'Donnell with a big Taboo poster or not: Key witness Douglas Fanueil, assistant to Martha's broker, Peter Bacanovic, will testify, but not before Martha's defense team asks the judge if they can "
grill Faneuil about his alleged use of marijuana and Ecstasy." That's right: They want to ask Faneuil about being a young person living in the 21st century.
One of the best movie courtroom scenes in recent memory: Denise Richards freaking out at Neve Campbell, with Bill Murray as defense attorney, in Wild Things.
