It is the fact that Fox is going to give this man air time to continue to victimize the families of the deceased 10 years later that is morally repugnant. Imagine having to wonder when you are going to hear more disturbing information about the death of your loved ones from the mouth of the man who was convicted in a Civil suit of the murder, and who cannot be tried again for anything more than "lying" in court (which probably won't happen because he never actually testified that he "didn't do it"). How much longer is he going to be allowed to pop up with more of this nonsense. He needs to spend less time on T.V. and more time at the bank withdrawing the money that he owes these families.

However, I don't believe that going after a news organization, who's job it is to report information to the public, is the right way to approach it. I'm simply not going to buy the book - nor should anyone else who doesn't want that money lining OJ's pockets. If Fox doesn't air the interview, someone else will. Simiarly, I wouldn't go after MSNBC or Reuters for covering the story. It's an actual story, of interest to the public. I agree that this is awful and the victim’s families deserve better.

Please sign it. The victim's families deserve better than this, whether he did it, didn't do it, or "hypothetically" did it....
