could get four years in prison. as karen brown reports, jurors heard two very different versions of the case during closing arguments. >> reporter: before the jurors got the case, prosecutors had the final fiery word. >> because of the bizarre, grossly negligent, criminally negligent actions of conrad murray that caused the death of michael jackson. >> they want you to convict dr. murray for the actions of michael jackson. >> reporter: but the defense claims michael jackson killed himself with the fatal dose of the anesthetic propofol and that dr. murray is only on trial because of his superstar patient. >> if you're going to hold dr. murray responsible, don't do it because it's michael jackson. >> now, the cameras may be here because of michael jackson, but we are here because of the actions of conrad murray. >> reporter: the jury is made up of seven men and five women. professionally, they range from the unemployed to a partner in a

management consulting firm and a handful of them have said they are fans of michael jackson's music. what kind of factor do you think it's going to be, the fact that michael jackson was such a huge celebrity? >> well, i think it's going to be a double-edged sword in some ways, because he is very beloved. on the other hand, you know, his history and some of his conduct is so outside the box. >> reporter: but the defense urged jurors not to get caught up in the celebrity factor. >> this is not a reality show. it's reality. >> reporter: and with fans screaming for jackson's family. >> go drip. you new acquit. >> reporter: and strangers chanting for the doctor, the jurors' decision may be what grounds this trial in reality. karen brown, cbs news, los angeles. in other news, the national restaurant association is expected to decide today whether one of the women who claimed they were sexually harassed by herman cain can go public. the accuser had signed a nondisclosure agreement.

the claims against cain and his changing explanations have tainted his campaign since the story first broke. it's reported that two of the three accusers were paid as much as $45,000 each to keep quiet. in a radio interview, cain refused to back away from his claim that the controversy was orchestrated by texas governor rick perry's campaign. >> i don't see another way for it to come out. let's just say there aren't enough bread crumbs that we can lay down and connect that leads us anywhere else at this particular point in time. >> reporter: last night, perry denied cain's accusations and said he would fire anyone who used such tactics against another candidate. >> if you're passing on rumors that are that heinous, that bad, you don't need to be working with me. gone. >> reporter: this morning a campaign political action committee is running a new web ad suggesting the sexual harassment claims are racist.

today, as soon as possible. >> reporter: but opposition leaders want to secure bailout funds before kicking him out. >> once these conditions have been met, elections must be held at the earliest possible convenience. >> reporter: if greece's rescue plan doesn't go through, the country could go bankrupt within weeks. now even if the government survives this confidence vote, government sources says papandreou will with the opposition party and then stand down. >> susan mcginnis in washington, thank you. on the cbs "moneywatch" a rebound for asian stock markets. drew levinson is here in new york with that and so much more. good morning, drew. >> good morning to you, betty. >> reporter: asian markets jumped today after the greek prime minister backed off his plan to put the eu bailout to a national vote. japan's nikkei was up almost 2% and hong kong's hang seng shot up more than 3%. today, wall street tries to keep its own rally going. thursday, stocks saw big gains. the dow jumped 208 points and the nasdaq up nearly 58. wall street is not expecting
