Rather than the TV coverage, or at least MSNBC or CNN, i've had a tab with the live feed going...

http://www.wftv.com/s/zimmerman-livestream/

The accompanying blog is funny, split between each side...

But the commentators seem fair, maybe a slight lean tot he defense... Good they are doing the live feed...

Hi weco, yes, I think the prosecutor is doing a great job with this witness.

Just read this:

Even If George Zimmerman Found Not Guilty Of Murder And Manslaughter, He Could Still Get 25 Years

by Richard Hornsby | 10:05 pm, July 9th, 2013 Column

To many people, there is no middle ground: George Zimmerman will either be convicted of Second Degree Murder or he will be found Not Guilty.

But the reality is much more complex, because the jury will have a number of Lesser Included Offenses to choose from.

And because of these numerous options, it is not uncommon for a jury to exercise what is known as their “pardon” or “nullification” power and return a compromise verdict that they believe is just under the circumstances. See generally Haygood v. State, 109 So. 3d 735 (Fla. 2013).
