Comment on Public Enemy: quotes from the Martin Shkreli jury selection processparent

Comments

Shkreli knowingly played into this in full, so he's not exactly a victim when he managed his fame playing a "heel".

“I’m just getting pissed off. That’s not the way I do business. If I hand you $2 million, f-ing show me some respect. At least have the decency to say nothing or ‘no comment.’

“The guy says ‘…before his business practices came to light.’ What the fuck does that mean? I f-ing make money. That’s what I do. That’s why I can f-ing afford a f-ing $2 million album. What do you think I do, make cookies? No, motherf-er. I sell drugs. [Laughs] I felt insulted.”

He played it up for sure. He seems like he'd be an annoying guy to spend time with, but he hardly deserves "most hated person in America."
