The Daily
A Royal Arrest and Global Fallout Over Epstein

The last person I want to talk about is Casey Wasserman, who is an enormously influential figure in media and in entertainment.

The Daily
A Royal Arrest and Global Fallout Over Epstein

His talent agency represents some of the biggest names in sports and music, some of the biggest performers.

The Daily
A Royal Arrest and Global Fallout Over Epstein

He separately is helping to run the Olympics.

The Daily
A Royal Arrest and Global Fallout Over Epstein

Tell us what happened with him.

The Daily
A Royal Arrest and Global Fallout Over Epstein

What did he do?

The Daily
A Royal Arrest and Global Fallout Over Epstein

And what do you make of that?

You know what's really interesting, Nick?

The Daily
A Royal Arrest and Global Fallout Over Epstein

You and I were both at the epicenter of The Times' Me Too coverage.

The Daily
A Royal Arrest and Global Fallout Over Epstein

We were both investigating individuals and systems and companies that allowed people to get away with predatory criminal behavior, in some cases for years without consequence.

The Daily

And I remember at some point โ€“ and I couldn't tell you when this would have happened โ€“ but at some point, it felt like there was a bit of a shift.

The Daily
A Royal Arrest and Global Fallout Over Epstein

And it felt like that shift was that society was willing to mete out consequences for lesser and lesser bad behavior.

The Daily

And so, therefore, the blast radius was getting larger and larger.

The Daily
A Royal Arrest and Global Fallout Over Epstein

And like I said, I don't know when that happened, but with the Epstein files and the release of them โ€“

The Daily
A Royal Arrest and Global Fallout Over Epstein

It feels like we are getting some inkling that that might be happening on an accelerated timeframe.

The Daily
A Royal Arrest and Global Fallout Over Epstein

Right.

Michael Shearer made the point to us earlier that people's hunger for accountability far outstrips what they feel they are getting from the legal system.

The Daily

Former Prince Andrew, for instance, that's only, I think, the third arrest that we have seen related to Jeffrey Epstein.

The Daily
A Royal Arrest and Global Fallout Over Epstein

Besides Jeffrey Epstein himself, of course, and Ghislaine Maxwell.

The Daily

And I wonder if that helps to explain at all the public appetite for some kind of consequence like what we are seeing now, a little bit regardless of what the people have actually done.

The Daily

But that's similar to me, too, we should point out, right?
