OJ and his publisher

[Guest]

Aha. OK, then. No harm done.

The Goldman family has a web site with a petition. They are trying to convince News Corp. to stop publishing the book and showing the interview. They are also trying to convince book sellers to not carry the book and TV sponsors not to advertise during the TV show.

I signed it. The money going to the kids is one of those shelters that allows OJ to bypass paying the Goldmans. This man is as guilty as can be and this publisher should be thoroughly ashamed of herself.

Wow, Fox is pulling it. The publisher is saying she isn't going to release the book. What do you know, we aren't completely bankrupt as a society after all (of course they mentioned that wherever he went, he was surrounded by hot, young women who wanted to be near him....gag!).

I'm shocked. And relieved.
