Time to stop explaining? Photo: CNBC If one of Carlos Watson’s goals on Monday — when he sat for a pair of interviews on CNBC and NBC — was to head off some of the considerable legal problems that he and his company, Ozy Media, now face, it was a conspicuous failure. Immediately after Watson wrapped with CNBC, Jim Cramer said on-air that he was “stunned” by the performance, and even that may have undersold it.
What difference did it make, for instance, that the former Ozy producer at the center of a follow-up story from Smith — in which the producer claimed that he had been misled by Ozy into believing that he was working on a show that would air on A&E — had later texted Watson enthusiastically? And why assert that a former employee who has been highly critical of the company in recent days was “fired for lying multiple times” without elaborating on this claim at...
The worst part of Watson’s performance on Monday for him and his company is that it was consistent with a pattern — the feature that is most likely to attract investigators and prosecutors — which is that, at every step of the way in this story since the Times kicked off this feeding frenzy, there are more questions than answers.
