TV is about selling commercial time. Sex sells, and this story has enough sex on its own to sell container loads.

I think that Chancellor was probably edited in the first 3/4 of the piece to sound as negative about the Family as possible. The clips they played of him, showed him sometimes turning kind of red and looking a bit uncomfortable. I have it on TIVO, and I'll look it over again today in detail to see if I can form any different opinions about it.

Jules did come off very well in the piece. Talking to a TV show about personal issues like this is very risky. They edit things, take them out of context, and do whatever they want with your words to contstruct something that will turn into ratings and help sponsors move product. I'll be interested to hear her reaction to the piece.
