ORLANDO, Fla. -- Casey Anthony's defense team has added journalist, blogger and TV personality Stephen Watts to its defense list, court records show.

According to Watts' blog, he is a television producer turned TV host and reporter.

Watts' site said he has worked or appeared on shows and networks such as "Nancy Grace," “On the Record with Greta Van Susteren," TRU TV and "Inside Edition."

He has covered cases such as Drew Peterson, O.J. Simpson, Scott Peterson, Haleigh Cummings and Casey Anthony, the site says. He also said he is working on a book about the media's influence on the justice system.

The defense's addition to its witness list was filed Friday, according to the clerk's website.

Coincidentally, Watts was mentioned in testimony by Cindy Anthony on Tuesday. Anthony said she gave Watts and Mark Furhman a tour of her backyard at one point. Furhman was an investigator on the O.J. Simpson case but has since written books and provided radio commentary.

Anthony said she later learned that Watts was working for FOX News at the time.
