O.J. Simpson is one vile individual
I mean seriously, what kind of person comes out with a book called "If I Did It" which refers to the brutal murder of an ex-wife and her friend, which most people pretty much think you did? That is some sick stuff. Then he's going on Fox to do an interview about how he would have gone about committing the murders "If" he was the one who actually did them.

I thought nothing could surprise me, but this is about the lowest thing I have ever heard. No shame whatsoever. No conscience whatsoever.

5. I think its hilarious. I mean, after all, it wouldn't have been published
if publishers weren't certain that enough people would buy it.

LOL

10. Sure.
Eleven years after he was acquitted and some white people are still freaking out about it.

6. "No conscience whatsoever"
Hence the medial term: psychopathic

7. Will the families of Ron and Nicole be entitled to any money made
from the sale of this book? Per the civil suit award?

12. I hope they get something too, although what a horrible way to get it, eh?
I was not opposed to Ron's family's recent petition to gain the rights to OJ's name and likeness so they can recoup some of the money that he owes them. Screw OJ - make him pay.

8. If he did it he is not sorry, if he didn't do it then it means he would
do anything for $$--bottom line is OJ is a very disturbed egomaniac.

11. New on Fox: "The OJ Files: If I Did It"
OJ revisits famous murder cases through history, and describes what he would have done differently.

You scoff, but Fox smells a winner.

17. Really sick, but not surprising
It figures that Fox would pick this up, given who their average viewer is. I feel sorry for the families and Nicole's children. Regardless of OJ's guilt or innocence, imagine f*cked up they must be after all that has happened and now this.

24. He is admitting guilt
Let's face it, if he were innocent, he wouldn't even come close to CONCEIVING of this book. A truly innocent person would never, ever, enter the realm of "but what if I did?"

Obviously, his guilt is catching up with him, and short of outright confessing, he is sublimating it into a 'what-if' scenario in order to give his debilitated conscience a safety release valve.

I hope he cracks completely one day and confesses. Until then, this sick exploitation will be all there is.

Who's fault is that?

28. So what kind of VILE INDIVIDUAL is Judith REGAN, his Faux interviewer?
A couple of her men:



*********QUOTE********

http://newyorkmetro.com/nymetro/news/media/columns/medialife/152/

.... Then Judith and Rupert found each other -- and ReganBooks was born. Not only did their commercial instincts mesh, but Judy's what's-the-world-ever-done-for-me politics were highly compatible with the Murdoch view.

And then the sex part. It's a one-woman show.

I have never heard anyone talk about sex the way Judy does. I have never heard anyone talk about their sexual partners the way Judy does. I have never heard anyone analyze individual motivations, the workings of the marketplace, and politics, too, in such precisely sexual terms. The other day, on her show, she kept interrupting her tempered guests on the subject of why women like Bill Clinton, and, voice rising, saying: "They want to have sex with him -- that's why they like him!"

Early in her career at Simon & Schuster, she published a book called The Rogue Warrior and fought tooth and nail for a full-face cover photo of the author. "Don't they understand?" she stormed to me. "Women will buy this because they want to fuck him!" She got the full face and a best-seller.

http://www.zianet.com/insightanalytical/newlow.htm (by DUer Gloria: )

Regan looked straight into the camera and for almost 10 minutes, delivered a pseudo stream-of-consciousness poetry riff mocking Clinton. Referring to his sad boyhood, she mocked his loneliness, then proclaimed that he built himself up and called himself KING, because "I am rich and I can do what I want!" She likened him to the cast out Socks, and envisioned him an old man meeting up with Socks at 125th street, both holding tin cups. ....

It was incredibly vicious. What was especially appalling was how she took the most painful aspects of Bill's background--his truly grievous childhood--and twisted them, using them to mock him. If this wasn't the "politics of personal destruction" I don't know how else you could describe this horrific display. ....

**********UNQUOTE***********

And I (the poster) will claim credit for insight. Back when KERIK's book for REGAN was debutting, she hosted him on her Faux interview show. His tale was of his missing mother, who inexplicably abandoned him as a tot. She never showed up for a custody hearing. The premise of the book was that this tough uber-male had this hole in his heart, thereby setting the pants on fire of tough wingnuts of all genders. As she probed him about the book, she and KERIK locked smouldering, HOT gazes. Once the mother-thing was done, she moved on to his heroics (which were what?) on 9-11. She asked WHERE HE WAS when the planes hit. Without missing an eye-lock, he said, "Stepping out of the shower." She swallowed and held a long breath. The image of nekkid KERIK was plainly etched on the Faux camera lens during the LONG pause. He added, "In my office." Another LONG pause. He added, "After WORKING OUT." There was another swallow. I suspected BACK THEN that something was cooking between publisher and author, and it weren't spaghetti. Only 2 or 3 years later, when KERIK's many other past deeds floated to the surface like dead bodies did it become official that there was indeed WILD WINGNUT HOT LOVE between the two, that the two of them alternated their WILD WINGNUT HOT LOVE sessions with WORKING OUT together, that he had used NYPD to track down what happened to his mother, that he used NYPD to provide security for his personal WILD WINGNUT HOT LOVE sessions, that the WILD WINGNUT HOT LOVENEST was a city-paid apartment near the WTC intended as a rest site for rescue and recovery workers. The REGAN-KERIK Faux interview was pure musk in the air. Why don't Shrub's handlers hire some of US for intelligence work?
