Well thank God. OJ has been dropped by Fox and Harper-Collins.
Rupert Murdoch says the interview will no longer be aired. Also, the book will not be distributed, and those copies already out will be recalled and destroyed in the face of public outrage.
Mr. Murdoch, expect a Christmas card from me this year.

Lets face it. OJ is a piece of shit. My prediction, if he did go on a media tour with this book, someone would have shot him dead somewhere. Possibly, even Ron Goldman's father. What OJ was going to do is the true meaning of rubbing salt in a wound
"I and senior management agree with the American public that this was an ill-considered project," said Rupert Murdoch
no shit!!

Honestly, Rupert Murdoch is a money grubbing neo-con bastard. Responding to the public outrage is too late. Just the sheer fact that this book was financed and the TV show was made and about to air during sweeps week mean to me that they gave a rats ass about the victim's families. OJ got paid for this already and no one in their right mind would have thought this book would be publically accepted.
This was a publicity stunt that are all too common these days and it has already served its purpose. The public are vultures for controversy.

I'm just glad that for once I was able to witness enough public rage to actually STOP a travesty from happening. This is good news.
