Ford was given the option to come testify privately or even by phone yesterday. Why did she do it in front of cameras and the tv?

What was the process of how that decision got made?

Added (1). If she was scared and terrified, why did she do it in front of the world?

Added (2). I'm sure something did happen to her, but this process has been mishandled from the beginning.

Added (3). Its not about hiding anything, its about making her feel comfortable. Then you had the list of "demands" from her attorneys… What's going on here?

Added (4). Everyone keeps saying she has nothing to gain, but I do bet she financially gains somewhere along the way over this. A book, a gofundme, a scholarship for someone, a public appearance, a job for something. Again, not saying she is lying, I'm just saying she will gain SOMETHING somewhere surely.
