'Jerry Springer': We Never Made Monetary Offer to Casey Anthony

By Kiki Von Glinow Posted Jul 8th 2011 05:00PM

After reports began to swirl that 'The Jerry Springer Show' was offering Casey Anthony $1 million to make an appearance with her family, the show's execs are now saying that the supposed monetary offer is completely false.

"There is absolutely no truth to this story whatsoever," 'Jerry Springer' spokesman, Gary Rosen said in a statement. "'The Jerry Spring Show' has not made any monetary offer to Casey Anthony and her family to appear on the program, nor will we."

The rumored appearance would have marked the Tot Mom's first public words following her first degree murder charge acquittal. Original reports detailed that the show presented the offer to Anthony's legal team on Friday morning, an offer that would then be taken to Anthony and her family -- who supposedly had to appear on the show with her in order for the deal to go through.

"The offer was made to Casey's defense team Friday," a now incorrect source told Star magazine. "They are interested. The should would get huge ratings. The family will be presented with the offer shortly."

But even before the alleged appearance was squashed, we had a difficult time believing that the deal would go through if it meant Casey's father, George Anthony had to present. During her trial, Anthony's defense argued that the way she dealt with her daughter, Caylee's death was brought on by her own early childhood molestation, at the hands of her father. Anthony's legal team also made the case that she did not immediately report her daughter's death at the instruction of her father who 'intimidated' her. It is unclear, after Anthony's not guilty verdict shocked people across the nation, whether she will be living with her parents following her July 17 release from jail.

With a potential civil trial still on the table, many believe that making a talk show appearance almost immediately after her criminal trial would have only further cast Anthony as one of America's 'most hated women.' But, at the same time, a million dollar payday may have been exactly what Anthony needed to reclaim her life -- a life that will forever be emblazoned with the scarlet letter of her daughter's still ambiguous death.

But now that the offer has been deemed as a false report, just like Caylee's death, we'll never know what Anthony would have done.

It's so depressing, yet predictable; Casey Anthony, who murdered her child, will now profit with the inevitable book deal, TV interviews and ultimately a reality TV show. She'll be the next Kardashian. I love how this society rewards criminals.

Murdered her child?? Last news report I saw, a jury of her piers found her NOT GUILTY... Were you in the court room? Who are you to judge her?

Boater1959, you're an idiot if you don't believe she murdered her child. Did you even watch any of it? Do you still believe that OJ is innocent? Sigh.

Boater are you an idiot. Not quilty does not mean innocent. If not anything else this women didn't report her child missing for over a month. If it quacks like a duck.

What kills me is that good citizens go to work everyday to support their families and still have a hard time making ends meet, yet this wacko gets away with killing her baby(Yes, I think she did it)could make all this money for her story. BOYCOTT this sick person, let her go out and find a real job.

"let he who is without shins, make the first kick"....or something like that.

What more can you say? She's a freak going to hell.

You're no better than her. Better read your bible because it states we are all sinners and our righteous acts are like filthy rags. God doesn't hate Casey Anthony for his love is unconditional and perfect. God isn't hate, God is love.

You're no better than her,I'm sorry to say.

"We're all sin-infected, sin-contaminated.
Our best efforts are grease-stained rags.
We dry up like autumn leaves—
sin-dried, we're blown off by the wind"

I WILL NOT WATCH Jerry Springer SHOW AGAIN AFTER THIS,,, CASEY MIGHT
MAKE MONEY AFTER SHE KILL CAYLE BUT SHE WILL BE IN FEAR FOR THE REST OF HER LIFE

By aaldrew

Yeh.. Keep looking over your shoulder Casey..

By RICK

Springer deserves this trash... Pay her & let the Florida Authorities reclaim the Money for money Wasted on her .. She should ONLY go on TV IF shes ready to admit her guilt.. Every one NOW loaths her ..maybe someone would respect her a little If she owns up ... **OH DOUG.. NO JURY found her "INNOCENT"... It was "NOT GUILTY" .. What a Difference .. !!!!

By Kimberly

Doug: she was not pronounced "innocent." The prosecution did not have enough evidence for a guilty verdict. There is a difference. She got away with murder.

By mike

Anyone with any sense will boycott any product advertised on Jerry Spring.....of course, anyone with any sense already doesn't watch Jerry Springer!!!

Kudo's on "NOT GUILTY" not the same as "innocent".....she is guilty as sin!

By hello kitty

I can already see it; "Did you do it?"

Perhaps Jerry should offer a million dollars to the first person that takes her out? Apparently it's pretty easy to get away with murder in this country; all you need is a jury of uneducated dopes.

By Ace

I urge the entire world to boycott anything to do with Casey Anthony. She should not earn 1 cent for murdering or covering-up her daughters death. I will not watch, nor will I support any show that gives her any money.

By abeachgirlgail

This is so discusting ! Boycott Jerry Springer !
I will never turn his show on AGAIN, NEVER EVER.
Casey Anthony deserves to rot in hell. I hope she lives in fear the rest of her LIFE.
Poor little Caylee died, so Casey could have her party life !
Jerry Springer wants to give her money for this sick deed?!?
Boycott the Jerry Springer show people.
