Well it's nice to know the Fox people can do something decent...

America has become a nation of such exerable bad taste that it was gratifying that media baron Rupert Murdoch, the king of scandal, has however belatedly pulled the plug on a book and TV interview with O.J. Simpson in which the man widely regarded as the killer was going to tell how he might have murdered his former wife and her friend.

By the time Murdoch acted, booksellers had returned to HarperCollins over 70,000 copies of Simpson’s stillborn "I Did It."
Said a HarperCollins exec:

"The accounts were treating the book as if it was pornography."

News of the book and interview prompted calls for boycotts and numerous TV stations said they would refuse to carry the program. And Denise Brown, Nicole's older sister, said that the publisher tried to silence the Brown and Goldman families with millions in hush money.

The listening to the American people bit... I'm still a skeptic. The people at FAUX news still haven't got it that the American people are just as outraged about the corruption of the Republicans and our current administration. And it might take another drubbing at the polls for the Republicans to convince them...

On the O. J. thing, well this is good news. The man needs to fade away into painful obscurity... He may have escaped earthly justice, but a higher judge awaits, and that court does not have racist cops or inept prosecutors to contend with...
