Cosby Case & Enquirer

A call to a telephone "hotline" at the National Enquirer newspaper helped the Los Angeles police department to apprehend a suspect in the murder of Bill Cosby's son, Ennis. The tabloid says it was acting on the wishes of its readers in establishing the tipline and offering a $100,000 reward offer for information on the killing. NPR's Brooke Gladstone reports.
