[0:01] Just because you grew up,
[0:03] got a job,
[0:06] got married,
[0:08] and had a family,
[0:09] doesn't mean you have to get one of
[0:11] those those, you know,
[0:14] Introducing Odyssey.
[0:16] With four doors
[0:18] and an easy fold-away rear seat,
[0:23] it's not just a minivan,
[0:25] it's a Honda.
[0:29] You're watching Coin TV, channel six.
[0:34] This is the CBS Evening News
[0:38] with Dan Rather and Connie Chung.
[0:42] Good evening. Rising tension among
[0:44] attorneys and the judge at the O.J.
[0:46] Simpson murder trial exploded in the
[0:48] courtroom this afternoon. The judge
[0:50] wound up citing one of the prosecuting
[0:52] attorneys for contempt of court before

[1:17] It was animated, apparently heated.
[1:20] Judge Ito at one point wagging his
[1:22] finger at Prosecutor Christopher Darden.
[1:24] An obviously irritated Ito ordered the
[1:26] jury out and the camera off. When the
[1:29] camera turned back on, Ito lashed out at
[1:31] Darden for an outburst the attorney had
[1:33] made at side bar and said he was going
[1:35] to cite Darden for contempt of court.
[1:37] I've cited you.
[1:40] Do you have any response?
[1:44] I would like counsel, Your Honor.
[1:45] What we are all concerned about here,
[1:46] Your Honor, is that there is a method of
[1:48] cross-examination that is being
[1:49] conducted by Mr. Cochran
[1:51] That's not what I'm interest
