If I did it, here's how it happened

<p>OJ Simpson - an interview… and a book title. I think I’m gonna be sick. :(</p>

<p>oh, and here is an article, about the interview, and the book…</p>

<p>Disgusting. If people truly want to know the details of “how he did it”, read Triumph of Justice by Daniel Petrocelli, or The Run of His Life: The People vs. O.J. Simpson by Jeffrey Toobin. Don’t give a murderer your hard earned money.</p>

<p>

Absolutely! I refuse to spend any money to reward criminals for their crimes. I can’t really understand why anyone would want to know “how he did it” – the fact that he is free while Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman is disgusting.</p>

4

<p>Yuck. :frowning: Guess he needs an infusion of cash.</p>

5

<p>Bleagh. I saw the ad for this while watching House last night. Disgusting. It will be distressing if this turns into a ratings juggernaut for Fox.</p>

6

<p>Of course it’s absolutely disgusting…Fox probably knows that and hopes that will draw some people</p>

7

<p>It is like a bad accident. I think it is disgusting as well, but I must say, it is like the Enquirer or something, there is a morbid curiosity about this person. I won’t watch, but I may read about it.</p>

<p>And his poor kids, how old are they now? It just goes to show he really doesn’t care about them, it was all just power…double ewwww</p>

8

<p>Funny you should say that, CGM, as the woman interviewing Simpson once worked for the Enquirer.</p>

9

<p>Three words…insensitive, insensitive, insensitive.</p>

<p>Oh, one more…creep.</p>

10

<p>I loved this quote from the story: “TV industry executives yesterday expressed shock and awe.”</p>

<p>Shock that Fox beat them out for the interview, and awe that the whole thing was packaged without them getting to bid on it…</p>

11

<p>I feel very sorry for his children and wife’s family. I hope the book rots on the bookshelves.</p>

<p>““If I Did It” is also the title of the former pro football player’s new book that, Fox said yesterday, hits bookstores Nov. 30 – just in time for the holiday gift-buying season, ho, ho, ho. And who wouldn’t love to find a copy of O.J.'s sordid sort-of hypothetical confession in his Christmas stocking on the morning of the day in which we celebrate the birth of baby Jesus?”</p>

12

<p>the only good that could ever come out of Simpson is if he took his proceeds and actually paid his debt
including the millions awarded to the Goldmans after their civil case against him.

</p>

<p>I think it is time to bring shunning back into fashion</p>

13

<p>I hope that any money he does make will find its way to the families of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman, since I do not believe that they have yet received the amounts awarded to them by the courts in their civil suit against OJ Simpson.</p>

<p>

Sounds good to me.</p>

15

<p>Rick, I heard Barbara Walters talk about it. She said that this was ‘shopped around’ for weeks to every major news network (she was offered the opportunity to conduct the interview), and all declined to do it.</p>

16

<p>I think it is time to bring shunning back into fashion
Sounds good to me.</p>

<p>I * really * was thinking of * stoning* ala Shirley Jacksons * the lottery* but since it is the holiday season I restrained myself.</p>

17

<p>Ew, ew, ew, and ewwwww.</p>

<p>Maybe it’s time to switch from a “guilt” culture, which presupposed the ability to feel guilt, to a “shame” culture. Cuz he has none.</p>
