| News Corp. Cancels Simpson Book | ||
| by Rachel Deahl News Corp. CEO Rupert Murdoch has pulled the plug on the upcoming Regan Books title from O.J. Simpson, If I Did It. A tell-all of a different variety, the book, which was to be Simpson’s outline of how he might have committed the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman, was scheduled for release on November 30 and was to be accompanied by a two-part TV interview to air on Fox on November 27 and 29.After the book was condemned by booksellers (many of whom said they would donate proceeds to the victims’ families), media critics and even pundits from Fox News, News Corp. announced in a terse statement that the book and TV special have been dropped. Murdoch said: “I and senior management agree with the American public that this was an ill-considered project. We are sorry for any pain this has caused the families of Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson.” |

[...] I wanted to mention Orenthal James Simpson, but Jason beat me to it. I will give credit where credit is due. I had thought of something eerily similar to what Jason titled his post, but he beat his Delawareliberal-ologist to the punch. Just as well, with APCAIS fully set in, any ounces of originality and creativity vanished in the first paragraph. [...]

and yet his conservative puke audience don’t get that the programming like O’Rielly and H&C are the same crap. As if the OJ was a seperate incident completely inconsistent with FOX (News Corp)

I think there may be a modicum of difference between conservative politics and a book about how you would have murdered your wife and her lover.
However, be on the lookout for “How I Would Have Continued if I Hadn’t Been Caught” by Bill Clinton due on shelves March ‘08.
