Absolute vile filth. Perhaps you all are right about Rupert Murdoch
OJ Simpson turned his ex-wife Nicole into a pez dispenser and Ron Goldman into swiss cheese, got away with it, defaulted on a wrongful death judgment against him and now, he's got a book and a 2 night Fox stint, all based on "IF I did it"... Apparently, he's done looking for 'the real killer' out on Florida golf courses...
What is wrong with us?

The U.S. is a democracy and errors of justice happen in democracies. Live with it. There are countries where the O.J. Simpsons of this world themselves are the judges, others where they don't even make it to the dock before being beaten to death.Originally Posted by Don Corleone

Re: Absolute vile filth. Perhaps you all are right about Rupert Murdoch
My outrage is not that OJ got acquited. As you say, it's the price we pay for having trial by jury of peers, which all things considered is still the best way to go. My disgust is with the bookdeal and the dedicated 2 day Fox News press junket to hock said book.

Why do you want to keep the black man down, Don?

Re: Absolute vile filth. Perhaps you all are right about Rupert Murdoch
Bill O'Reilly was really appalled about this, he complained about Fox's stance on this during his radio show, and says he will do so again later tonight on his FoxNews show. With Fox's approval, so he says.
Disclaimer: I drive into work listening to the SportsJunkies on WJFK, O'Reilly has the station in the afternoon, so the radio is on that station when I start the car up to go get lunch. I'm not a listener to the NoSpin Zone. Really, I'm not!

Re: Absolute vile filth. Perhaps you all are right about Rupert Murdoch
I really hope some judge orders all the proceeds for OJ on the sell of this book go to the payment the civil court judgement against OJ. And OJ doesn't recieve one cent, but most likely the publisher gave OJ an upfront payment of some amount in the millions of dollars.
And I hope a judge also orders the publisher to pay to a woman's abuse shelter all the proceeds that the publishing company gets for actually publishing this book.

Re: Absolute vile filth. Perhaps you all are right about Rupert Murdoch
It was California he was sued in , pensions are exempt from legal awards in that State.Anyone know why this is? It seems odd.
There are different laws concerning siezing someones house over debt , especially if it is their only residence .
Re: Absolute vile filth. Perhaps you all are right about Rupert Murdoch
Wow. I am impressed. An Eire-man is conversant in California law. And I admit shame that I'm not as knowledgeable of Irish statutes.
Tribesman has it right. Generally, Cali courts look at when, and under what obligatory circumstances ('obligatory' = marriage, partnerships, etc. ) assets were accumulated. And basic shelter (whether it's a mansion, an outhouse, or something in between) is sancrosanct.
IIRC, (and I may not) OJ's civil settlement directs any book/tv/movie profits he enjoys, to his kids' trust fund. God... they must be teens now. Maybe this is his (twisted, Hollywood) way of fully funding their future.
Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.
Re: Absolute vile filth. Perhaps you all are right about Rupert Murdoch
If I were related to either of his "what if" victims, I would catch OJ off guard and give him a taste of his own medicine, and theres not a jury in the country who would convict me, unless of course I was tried in East St. Louis.

Re: Absolute vile filth. Perhaps you all are right about Rupert Murdoch
I guess OJ's running out of money...or he's just more blatantly vile. Maybe he needs a new golf cart to catch those murderers.
I'm sure you could find lots of info on the net, given enough time and searching.Wow. I am impressed. An Eire-man is conversant in California law. And I admit shame that I'm not as knowledgeable of Irish statutes.

Re: Absolute vile filth. Perhaps you all are right about Rupert Murdoch
It appears that Murdoch has apologised and pulled the TV special and the book - under substantial pressure from the public and affiliates.

Re: Absolute vile filth. Perhaps you all are right about Rupert Murdoch
From what little I've read, it seems so. The deal is done. 400,000 copies of the book have been printed, and the interviews have been taped. OJ gets his money. The interesting question is what Fox and Judith Regan will do with their purchased property. Will they take the hit? Or will they try to cash out farther down the line?
This whole episode is in unspeakably poor taste ...

It would be interesting to know who dreamt up the entire concept.

Well that was fun. The deal is off.
