“OH MY GOD. Not Guilty??? I am STUNNED,” Geraldo Rivera tweeted.

ABC News legal analyst Dan Abrams had a few thoughts on the matter, engaging followers in discussions about what could have possibly led the jury to such a surprising decision.
 
“Wow. I am stunned. Ill admit it, I didn’t expect this verdict. At all. It shows you can never predict what a jury will do,”  he wrote.
 
Adding, “Jurors must have believed that the prosecution never proved cause of death… meaning they didn’t prove this was a murder” and  “Remember not guilty does NOT equal innocent.”

Keith Olbermann has not only kept quiet on his thoughts of the verdict, he actively refused to comment when asked by followers.
 
He retweeted a post by comedian Christian Finnegan: “I’m devastated by the Casey Anthony verdict. Not b/c I have an opinion, but b/c it means another 3 weeks of my wife talking about it.”
 
Olberman also responded to queries from fans with, “Murder case. Not national news. Period.” And “What trial?” In one final dig, he concluded: "And if nobody's clear on this: no trial will be covered on tonight's Countdown. Except the various trials of my patience."
 
Joy Behar threw in her two cents with a little joke, “I am shocked by the Casey Anthony verdict. Though I can’t say this is the first time Florida screwed up on an important vote.”
 
Also remaining mum on the verdict -- for now -- is Fox’s Bill O’Reilly, Glenn Beck and CNN’s Anderson Cooper.
