For the first 200 years of the United States of America, we lived in a world null and void of television. If Americans wanted to see a sporting event, they had to attend it; there was no instant replay or professional analysis.
Thanks to the media, the Los Angeles District Court has become a movie setting starring such celebrities as Erik and Lyle Menendez, Heidi Fleiss and O.J. Simpson. We can not forget those other supporting characters like Marcia Clark (and her new hair cut), Judge Lance Ito (Do all judges slouch when on the bench?) and that new heartthrob–Robert Shapiro with sidekick F. Lee Bailey.
