OJ FOLLOW UP: A FOX revolt?

Thursday, November 16th, 2006


Following up on my previous posting, what you see below is an email I just received. Names and email addresses have been removed for the sake of this person’s employment:


Subject: Shame for our Society

As I am undoubtedly sure, you have all heard about the upcoming OJ Simpson interview and book, in which he discusses how, if he HAD committed those murders, how he would have done it…hypothetically.Thanks to FOX and Newscorp, we will be subjected to a two night interview.

I am offended. Disgusted. Outraged. And I am promoting it. Yes, I work for FOX Broadcasting Promotions division and it is my job to make sure that people know all about this event. This brings about a new emotion — shame. I am ashamed for myself and my company that they have decided to take such a drastic step to help their network television channel get ratings, amongst other things (ratings are not the only reason for this).

Other networks would never have allowed such a piece of debauchery to ever see the light of day. NBC, owned by GE, has several ethics clauses within its company. ABC, a subsidiary of Disney, forget about it (you cant even use certain language inside the offices there…i know, my friend used to work there).

But oh no! Not FOX! They love a scandal, no matter what the subject matter.

But i want to extend my feeling of shame. I am ashamed of our society. Fox may be the ones who actually decided to air this, but they are showing it because they think people will watch it. And they will. Millions of people are going to tune in to listen to OJ hypothetically explain how he would commit a murder. Having a trial where we were already told how he did it wasnt enough.

What is it in our society that we can no longer say “No. This is wrong.”? You know why television is filled with reality shows of people hurting each other and eating bugs? Because people don’t say, “Hey! Knock it off!”

And that is exactly why I am writing this note. Please, let your voice be heard. Send an e-mail to FOX/Newscorp, your friends and family, random people, about how wrong this event is. We have no right to complain about our society if we do not do something to better it.

I work for FOX and I can tell you that there is not a single person in my department who is accepting of this interview/book. How many people will share their voices, I do not know. If the best that I can do is NOT watch it, then so be it. But I will make sure people know my opinion. Please, let people know yours.

E-mail local FOX affiliates wherever you live. If even one channel doesn’t show it, that would be a victory in my eyes.

Below I have attached an article from msnbc.com that says everything I want to say, but better. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15732829/

We are the problem, but we are the solution.

OJ’s Disgusting Grouping of Words

Thursday, November 16th, 2006

I’m struggling to decide who I should hate more in this whole O.J. Simpson book story. If you know nothing about what I’m talking about, you really need to pay more attention–go read this, then come back.

Now, obviously, I have hatred for O.J. who not only killed Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman and got off, but whose nationally televised Ford Bronco chase interrupted what was a perfectly good NBA Finals game. He’s written this disgusting grouping of words that describes how he “would have” killed Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman and has the gall to call it a book.

Well, I also have an extreme loathing for the publisher of this disgusting tome. Judith Regan, the reprehensible media whore who famously had an affair with New York City police commissioner Bernard Kerik when they worked together on his book and who may or may not have had the same “publishing arrangement” with roid-head Jose Canseco, has the extreme audacity to cut down trees in order to publish this disgusting grouping of words that she has the gall to call a book.

And how about Rupert Murdoch? He’s owns not only HarperCollins, which is the company that own’s Regan’s publishing group, but he also owns the FOX Network which is giving Regan two prime time hours to interview O.J. Simpson in what is essentially an infomercial advertising this disgusting grouping of words that they have the gall to call a book.

Or lastly, and probably who I will reserve my most hatred for, ANYONE who pays money for this. Simpson, Regan and Murdoch should NEVER see a dime for this pathetic waste of time and natural resources. If you want to read it, steal it from a bookstore because any bookstore carrying this crap deserves to be stolen from. And please, don’t watch the interview. Find something better to do in its time slot like visiting a dentist or selling drugs to children.

UPDATE 9:04 AM: One last thought. . .I WILL watch the TV special so long as OJ slices up Judith Regan in order to demonstrate what he did with his wife–that would be good TV.

UPDATE 11/17: Send your complaints here: judith.regan@harpercollins.com or roger.ailes@foxnews.com and tell them Dr. Blogstein sent ya!
