ford's legal team is canceling some of these interviews that they had set up is that they wanted to show some good faith to the other side and according to this source that was a welcome sign. it signaled to them that there's sort of a commitment there to get this done. and acourting to this source, in the words of this source, "we want to work this out." anderson, one other interesting prospect in all of this that i think really needs to be underlined and highlighted, and that is that the conversations are continuing inside the senate judiciary committee to have a female attorney, a prosecutor or litigant of some kind to represent the all-male gop side of the senate judiciary committee. i was talking with a source earlier this evening who said essentially they don't want to have the image out there to the american people of a group of aging men on the senate gop side quizzing and questioning and interrogating christine blasey ford. they would rather see a female prosecutor do that. anderson? >> is there any reaction tonight
