OJ Simpson is writing a book entitled If I Did It
From MSNBC:
The early part of the book tells how Simpson fell in love with Nicole and how the marriage collapsed, reports the tab. He goes on, according to the article, to describe in gruesome detail the killing of his ex-wife and Goldman; he stipulates that the murder scenes are “hypothetical.†But, notes the tab, the descriptions are “so detailed and so chillingly realistic†that readers are left with little doubt as to what really happened.
Another article suggests the title will be If I Did It, Here’s How It Happened.
Absolutely amazing.
There is a petition online at http://www.ipetitions.com/petetion/ojinterview to call for Fox news to cancel its interview with OJ about this ridiculous book. Please sign it. The victim’s families deserve better than this, whether he did it, didn’t do it, or “hypothetically” did it….
Thanks,

I agree that this is awful and the victim’s families deserve better. 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.
The fact that news organizations are reporting that he has this idiotic book coming out is not my issue, and I will happily not buy this book. 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.
