Quotes
-
Alex : I just don't think it's such a good idea, you know, your first night back, that you mention the 16 year-old prostitute.
Jim Walcott : Oh, come on, I was big on CNN for that story...
Alex : Well, you're lucky that a deal was struck and that there were enough lawyers contradicting one another that there wasn't a clear cut picture of what really happened, or else you wouldn't have a job here.
Jim Walcott : Tell me about it. I watched CNN wall to wall on this one. Who knows who was telling the truth.
Alex : Well, you knew the truth. You were the guy.
Jim Walcott : You know this was like O.J. No one knew who did what.
Alex : It was your story. It was about you. You were the O.J. You didn't need CNN. You knew the truth.
Jim Walcott : Oh, I see what you mean. I didn't need CNN to tell me...
Alex : That you were the guy with the hooker.
Jim Walcott : Yeah! I was the O.J.!
Alex : You were the O.J.
