News Corp canceled the much publicized release of O.J. Simpson's next book and TV
Rupert Murdoch put an end to the deal. Judith Regan, publisher of "If I Did It" had to obey the supreme boss. Still, she considered the book to be Simpson's mea culpa, confession. Now, one may wonder whether the whole thing was a ploy to get him to confess and boost the sagging bottomline of Fox Networks that has been trailing in viewership lately. The two-part sweeps month special also got canceled. Does this mean we will not see O.J. Simpson's face on TV any longer? Maybe not, what if a maverick publisher and broadcaster decide to offer him more money to publish a similar book? No matter what, the cancelation shows the power of consumers, shoppers and regular folks sitting at home. We are the viewers. We have power. If we do not like something, we should say it. The networks are realizing that we are embracing interactive networks. With the Youtubes of the world and blogging platforms, we, consumers now have a say. We are not taking it sitting down any longer. We can voice our disagreements and outrage. That is what Ron Goldman and relatives of Simpson's wife did. They lashed out at the planned publication and broadcast plans. Nicole Simpson and her friend Goldman get some level of justice. Money can not buy everything under this sun. There must be a point when people say enough is enough. Fred Goldman with his friends and attorneys got on the airwaves and started speaking out against the plans. Nobody can take away, erase the pain of a father who lost his beloved son in a nonsensical killing. "For that I will hate him always and find him despicable," Said Fred on ABC. O.J. Simpson was acquitted in 1995 of murder. However, the former football star and announcer was later found liable for the deaths in a wrongful death lawsuit brought on by the Goldman family.
It is clear that O.J. Simpson may not make any money on this double murder. Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson's spirits will not be captured in this late explanation of the murder that shocked the nation. Folks, this show is over for now.
