Wow. With the book being released in 10 days, I wouldn't be surprised if hundreds of thousands or millions of copies were already printed and will now be on their way to the shredder, but not before someone gets their hands on it. I would expect to see some pop up on ebay and sell for a fortune.

Why would they be on the way to the shredders.
Two seperate issues - the TV broadcast vs the written confession.


The book was also cancelled.

You know what is crazy is that this guy has no regard for his children. Basically he is saying "Hey kids this is how I killed your mother." IMHO he is the lowest of scum.

here is the reply I got from fox just after they cancelled.


We appreciate the time you took to write us. News Corporation, parent company of the FOX Network, decided today to cancel the OJ Simpson program that was slated to air Nov. 27 & 29. It will not air on Q13 FOX or any other Fox station. They have also canceled the publication of the book.

It took at outcry from the American Public for Murdoch to get a moral conscience. What a scary thought that this POS is the overseer of a large percentage of the news that the Western World gets.

BTW, kudos to Bill O'Riely. While I don't think much of him personally he did have the balls to stand up to his Overlord and call for a boycott of all entities that were responsible for the program and the book which happpens to be Murdoch's companies.

Dollars to Doughnuts, the book will appear soon.

To juicy of a story for another sleeze publisher to ignore.

Tabloids will also have a field day with it.

You know, the same thoughts were racing through my mind today. If firgure, somebody, even if it's as low as the National Enquirer, is going to publish this, if at least a synopsis.

Oh yeah... there are publishing houses out there right now surrounded by teams of lawyers weighing the cost of litigation against the potential profits. If the numbers add up there will definitely be a book. Or better yet, a graphic novel. :roll: Then OJ's kids can read all about how daddy killed mommy.

i'm from minnesota. he... is a disgrace to our state, well I shouldn't say that, but come on, he's a doofus, why would he put all that effort into writing something as stupid as that!? can't he fuse his energies together and focus on doing something more highly achievable in a positive point of view, already have the attention that he does now?

so he looks more ungrateful than he ever has... I wonder if he is a psychopath gone wild? could he write a book that talked about his life while he had a wife? and how his life ended up without her? or how much he misses her? or his time in prison, or how well he played in the NFL? the guy needs help, he seeks attention from the public? maybe he's backed by Fox to do something this flimsy?

very sleezy, I am not going to read or buy this book. what a wassssste of time. interesting to know that the public will be tuned in .... a lot of Fox News is pretty much garbage. it's common sense turned inside out to make viewers believe they are missing something. if they just read the paper or payed attention to their own communities, Fox would be in the hole. Fox hole anyone?

alright, well, in honest opinion, O.J. Simpson is a troubled man.

p.s. he should stop trying to be like Britney Spears. when your being famous is weakening, let it weaken and do something else, don't try to do something stupid to capture more publicity because you think you're feeling lonely? get a life, kids~

That's correct. BTW, I just saw his murdered wife's sister on NBC, saying that Rupert Murdoch offered to pay the two families of the murder victims off, so they wouldn't come out against the book/movie. According to her, the day after both families declined his offer, he came out with his "I and senior management agree with the American public that this was an ill-considered project," rhetoric.:roll:
