From "Ronan Farrow Too Good to be True"

I'll just quote the conclusion of Ben Smith's New York Times article:

Farrow has a big following on social media, too, and some of the same tendencies that undermine his reporting show up there. In January, when jurors were being selected for the Weinstein trial, they were asked what they had read about Weinstein to see if they could serve impartially. Farrow tweeted that a “source involved in Weinstein trial tells me close to 50 potential jurors have been sent home because they said they’d read Catch and Kill.” 

Farrow was not in the courtroom that day, and he told me last week that his source stands by that figure. But the court reporter, Randy Berkowitz, told me that he recalled laughing with lawyers and court staff the day after about Farrow’s tweet, which he said was seen as “ridiculous.” 

And Jan Ransom, a reporter who covered the trial for The Times, was there. The actual number of potential jurors who read the book, according to Ransom’s reporting? Two.
