Big 3 networks bidding up to $1.5 Million for Casey Anthony interview
Casey Anthony's Parents -- $250,000 Doesn't Cut It!!!

The network bidding war over key interviews in the Casey Anthony case has gone into the stratosphere ... because TMZ has learned a syndicated talk show was laughed at with a bid of $250,000 for Casey's PARENTS!!!

The bidding has gone crazy ... we're hearing the bidding for a Casey interview was over $1.5 million.

Now ABC News has just released a statement, saying it will no longer pay for photos and video in exchange for interviews.

The announcement comes days after TMZ published a story ... that Casey's lawyer, Jose Baez, was holed up in the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in New York City, taking bids from NBC, ABC and CBS. As we reported, Baez was in the Hotel bar Thursday night, discussing strategy with famed lawyer Mark Geragos.

2. What will Nancy Grace's bonus be at year-end? Probably more than $1.5 Million. She should thank Ca
Casey for the ratings boost. :sarcasm:

Who cares.

3. Next thing we know one of the networks
will plan a mini series about it and last a whole season. Then they can all wake up and find out they have been asleep all the time a la Dallas.

4. Juror identities will remain private until Oct. 25 or after..
Perry's 12-page ruling said the names of 14 of the 17 jurors will remain private until Oct. 25. Several jurors already stepped forward and spoke to the media, at least one under condition of anonymity.

I think Judge Perry is doing the right thing here. But the media doesn't seem to agree because of the freedom of information act.
