New York, NY - November 20, 2006 - News Corporation Chairman and CEO Rupert Murdoch today announced that the company has canceled publication of the book If I Did It as well as the corresponding FOX broadcast network special.
Mr. Murdoch said: “I and senior management agree with the American public that this was an ill-considered project. We are sorry for any pain this has caused the families of Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown-Simpson.”

Excellent! Good job Dr. B!
Good bye OJ.

New York Times: Simpson and Fox News buckle under the pressure of media powerhouse Dr. Blogstein.

That’s right! I will take full and complete credit for the end of the OJ Project.

Dr. Blogstein….I met Vince this weekend, he so cool…hahahaha
Off topic I now…I’ll email you and tell you how cool he is, and I mentioned your suggestion to him

Chalk up one for the silent majority..

Very cool, Mr. Point! Did you talk Vince into running for president? Or at least he could be Rudy’s running mate!
RTL: We weren’t so silent!

Egad! The media has finally found a story that they are unwilling to exploit due to “bad taste??!!”
What is this world coming to?! (Apparently something positive for a change.)

Not quite, Serena. The media was all set to exploit it during sweeps week. Luckily, America finally had the sense to say “Enough is enough”

I too am shocked that there is something that Fox finds in bad taste, no matter what the reason. Perhaps they just want to save it for MySpace.

I think Murdoch has something up his sleave. I predict OJ’s book will pop up through some small-time overseas publisher.
November 21st, 2006 at 2:28 pm
Wouldn’t surprise me if the sick freak manages to sell his book to someone else, though. There’s always somebody low enough to find that kinda thing thrilling.

CNN is report OJ already was compensated, “an undisclosed amount for his children’s education.”
Like they will see a penny of it.

Finally, common sense prevails.
