Well the book and the special has officially been cancelled after Fox agreed to take the special for their network. The statement was made that the project was "ill-concieved." Simpson wouldn't say much in an interview, he just said he was "I would like nothing better than to straighten out some things that have been mischaracterized. But I think I'm legally muzzled at this point."
I think it was a good decision. As much as it sounded like a full-out confession, it was just stupid of OJ to even grant any shred of cooperation from himself. He didn't look too innocent to begin with, now he just looks even more guilty. Whatever though, he's obviously scrounging up his last bits of fame and money. I kind of wonder how much money he has left compared to how much he had and made off of the publicity from the trial.
And an interesting fact. The book was on the top 20s of the amazon best-sellers, though not really at the top. It dropped to 51 before it was cancelled. I think it shows that people have the least bit of shame left and decided that it was just too much. I dunno though, I think this was good news.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
