The Depp v. Heard defamation trial prompted two types of reactions. Those who couldn’t get enough and those who got more than they wanted. But why did the trial overwhelm social media? And what did people miss if that’s all they were seeing? In the wake of the verdict — and as the Heard legal team alleges juror misconduct in the trial — NBC News examines how the case evolved into “the TikTok trial” and what the verdict means for victims of domestic abuse.

Did anyone at NBC actually watch the trial its no wonder depp insisted on televising the trial so we can decide for ourselves because clearly the mainstream media is baught and payed for
Any affect it would have is to be honest abt stuff.
I also cancelled Peacock & This reporting is BS. Don't even watch news etc anymore. Only reason I checked this out was 2 see Elaine pink room that we talked bout on Emily's channel. @NBCNEWS do better!!!!
Nbc, I no longer trust you to provide me with the truth. I watched the trial with no preconceived ideas. In fact I expected to favor amber. But the evidence was overwhelmingly, if not entirely, in depp's favor. I no longer see nbc as a trusted source of the truth.
NBC does amber heard have compromising videos of nbc top executives???? How DARE YOU try to tell US that narcissist devil lost the trial due to social media????? We all SAW and HEARD the trial with our own eyes and ears!!! I am canceling anything that has to do with nbc!!! YOU MAKE ME SICK!!!
PLEASE EVERYONE WITH ANY SENSE, CANCEL EVERYTHING THA HAS TO DO WITH NBC! NOW!!!!!
very disappointing to see NCADV siding with AH because of a stereotype and out dated beliefs. This is a horrible video-black dress, dark haired reporter was shocked JD was proven true, instead of handling the news with dignity and grace-she immediately thought it was incorrect. Others too on this show. However the worst was the NCADV, are they saying men cannot come forward, only women even if they didn't have it happen? This made me very sad for all true victims
Report this biased video
Also, concerning jurors not being comfortable with Heard looking @ them, remember that directly behind the lawyers podium was all that crowd who booed Heard everyday, that would be a misery. if it was me, I'd find it easier to look at the few in the jury than a hundred. Plus no other witness was booed everyday so they felt more comfortable looking at those people. Is it customary to allow spectators to stand to entrance of a trial & boo the defendant/plaintiff while the booing is televised to millions if not billions? Was there no way to barricade the street & warn people to keep off of it as that a trial is a serious endeavor & not a sporting event?!
What a shame that you still give a platform to a known abuser, who did not abuse an intimate partner for the first time. Your morslity seems to be or with your wallet or your party book. But every little bit of exploring and recording the truth went down the capitalist toilet.
Stop líes Amber Heard is not a victim, she is the abuser. Stop protecting her, just tell the thruth. You are harming the real victims of violence
This documentary is so biased. It is insulting views' intelligence. NBC should be ashamed.
This is not a setback for domestic violence Victims it's a setback for Con Artist and Liars.
This is so poorly done.
Thankyou for this documentary, this is a true assessment of the trial
I believe Amber Heard
Boycott Peacock!!!
For anyone who thinks this was a good documentary I recommend you go and watch nate the lawyer break down how much they lied about the trial. If you're unwilling to do that then you dont deserve to voice an opinion about the trial.
What a deceptively edited piece of crap. NBC has blown all their credibility.
To sum up the mental state of every person interviewed for this, sometimes you invest so much of your time and money pushing one theory (men can never be victims of women) that when it turns out to be false you can’t deal with it, it’s easier to believe that the whole world has gone mad than to accept that you are wrong about something.
After what I saw on social medias bias against Amber I was disgusted. Depp is such a loser that after abusing this woman ruining her career. I went off of Facebook because they kept fill my thread with those horrible Amber jokes and false headlines. Social media has control over our lives. That’s how trump got his power.
At 15:15 "it made contact" Depp says demonstrating where the bottle supposedly hit his hand and "shattered", but somehow only cut his finger off from UNDERNEATH his fingernail???? Really??!! And nevermind that Depp is on tape telling Heard that he cut off his own finger, right?
That judge Penny needs to be investigated because this never should have been brought to trial.
Nbc is totally blind and has no credibility in my eyes
Where are the dislikes? Does anyone know the ratio?
Thank you so much for this report. JD fans are such bullies and so blind. How ppl can't see the truth is beyond me.
