Court crack-up: Johnny Depp amused over tabloid stories, makes gallery laugh | LiveNOW from FOX

Johnny Depp became both amused and frustrated as Amber Heard's attorney went through a number of tabloid stories written about the actor before Heard's op-ed in the Washington Post, which is the basis for the lawsuit. At one point while reading the story headlines, Depp sarcastically complemented the attorney for reading the headline very well.

Even if the majority of the questions get objected to and sustained, the jury will remember the barrage of questions more than they remember that they were sustained.

[@commonsense4299]

Well, unfortunately the burden of proof is on Depp's lawyers. It's a defamation case, and that's a bit more challenging to prove. That being said, even if Depp's team loses this case, it is VERY, VERY clear that the general public is overwhelmingly supportive and sympathetic to Johnny Depp. The public is clearly not buying Amber Heard's attempt in playing the victim. So, when this case is over, if she wins, people will boycott her movies and probably Disney as well, for what they did to Depp. You can't underestimate the power of the court of public opinion.

[@douglasmoffat1538]

I'm happy Johnny isn't allowing the lawyer rush him and keeps talking as he tries to talk over him(if he can get Johnny to just stick to the yes and no answering, with no extra comments, the chances are higher to turn the case the way her lawyer want it, if he cant keep Johnny from saying extra comments, he tries talk over in hope's the jury doesnt hear him).
