They didn't pay during the years when I spoke at NIDs. I was even charged registration fees.
But I didn't complain then, and I'm not bellyaching now. I note this for the record only.

Of course you can. Authors on both sides (the truth and the Lone Nut lie) have made dough off this case. So too some conference promoters, booksellers, filmmakers, etc.
And let's not forget the assassins and their heirs and business partners.
