Casey Anthony: Would Cheney Mason help her more than Jose Baez?

Is there more turmoil in the Casey Anthony camp?

Citing unnamed sources, The New York Post is reporting that Casey Anthony is preparing to dump attorney Jose Baez because she’s unhappy that he hasn’t landed her a major interview and that she doesn’t trust him anymore.

The Post article contained an interesting nugget: “Anthony avidly pores over online reports about herself and her camera-hogging lawyer.”

Could she be a reader among us?

One of those unnamed sources tells the Post that Anthony thinks Baez is “using her name as a meal ticket.”

This report follows one by Diane Dimond on The Daily Beast that there has been a falling-out between Baez and Anthony as well as between Baez and fellow attorney Cheney Mason. The Post, citing those sources, says Mason will take over as her media rep. But the Post also inaccurately identified Mason as Anthony’s first attorney.

Dimond reported: ”As one person close to this story who did not want to be identified put it, ‘Jose is on the outs now. Cheney is in.’ ”

Would that make a difference?

In July, Anthony was acquitted of murder in the death of her daughter, Caylee. Until last week, she had been in hiding while serving a year’s probation somewhere in Florida for check fraud. But last week, clips of her video diary surfaced online. Anthony and Baez have said that her computer was hacked. However the clips surfaced, they put Anthony back in the headlines in a big way.
