NBC News Pays for Access to Oscar Pistorius Murder Scene

By Jordan Chariton 

With the Oscar Pistorius murder trial verdict expected tomorrow, “Today” paid for exclusive access to the South Africa home where Pistorius shot and killed his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.

“We paid a nominal location fee,” an NBC News spokesperson tells TVNewser about this morning’s segment reported by investigative correspondent Jeff Rossen.  In it, Rossen noted NBC News was given exclusive access by the new owner of Pistorius’ recently-sold home, then taking viewers inside Pistorius’ bedroom and bathroom where the murder happened. Sources inside NBC tell us location fees are not out of the norm for non-public location shoots.
