Lower than low, and the media agree

OJ Glove

Now we’ve seen it all.

OJ Simpson is coming out with a book that details the hypothetical scenario of how he would have killed his ex-wife.

For once, we can all rejoice in a collective “are you F-in kidding me?”

Here’s an excerpt from a must-read editorial by the Mercury News:

In the book due out Nov. 30, Simpson describes his marriage and divorce and then switches into hypothetical mode to describe the 1994 murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman.

“There’s little that would surprise me from this murdering SOB, but this does reach an all-time low, even for him,” Ron Goldman’s father, Fred Goldman, succinctly told the New York Post.

The Fox network is promoting the book through a two-part special, “If I Did It, Here’s How It Happened,” featuring Simpson being interviewed by his book’s publisher, Judith Regan. It’s an inside job: News Corp. owns both Fox and HarperCollins, which owns ReganBooks.

Simpson cries repeatedly in the interview, saying, “I can’t do this, I can’t have my kids hear me say this,” report New York Post sources. Pathetic.

Regan said she considers the book Simpson’s “confession.” But under double-jeopardy laws, Simpson can’t be retried for murder.

May the power of media abstinence be with you.

    In case you care, the book publisher is calling it a confession.

    NYT: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/11/17/arts/17ojbook.html?_r=1&oref=slogin

    “The book is his confession,” the publisher, Judith Regan, said during a telephone interview. “I would have had no interest in publishing anything but that.”
