What a scumbag. I'm just speechless....

Fox to broadcast interview with O.J. Simpson
Ex-football star to discuss killings of ex-wife, her friend

LOS ANGELES - Fox plans to broadcast an interview with O.J. Simpson in which the former football star discusses “how he would have committed” the slayings of his ex-wife and her friend, for which he was acquitted, the network said.
The two-part interview, titled “O.J. Simpson: If I Did It, Here’s How It Happened,” will air Nov. 27 and Nov. 29, the TV network said.
Simpson has agreed to an “unrestricted” interview with book publisher Judith Regan, Fox said.
“O.J. Simpson, in his own words, tells for the first time how he would have committed the murders if he were the one responsible for the crimes,” the network said in a statement. “In the two-part event, Simpson describes how he would have carried out the murders he has vehemently denied committing for over a decade.”
The interview will air days before Simpson’s new book, “If I Did It,” goes on sale Nov. 30. The book, published by Regan, “hypothetically describes how the murders would have been committed.”
In a video clip on the network’s Web site, an off-screen interviewer says to Simpson, “You wrote ’I have never seen so much blood in my life.”’
“I don’t think any two people could be murdered without everybody being covered in blood,” Simpson responds.
Simpson, who now lives in Florida, was acquitted in a criminal trial of the 1994 killings of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend Ronald Goldman. Simpson was later found liable in 1997 in a wrongful death lawsuit filed by the Goldman family.
Messages left with Simpson and his attorney Yale Galanter were not immediately returned.

    how obscene.
    i don't know who is the most despicable in this story. how could this man do this to his children.
    you know i saw christopher darden on oprah and he is absolutely convinced oj is guilty. he also said how johnny cochrane told him not to put mark fuhrman(sp?) on the stand but ignored the advice.

    Disgusting. How vile for a TV station to broadcast such a thing....

    usually i don't mind Fox News reporting but this is hands down the worst decision with news I have ever seen (well that and the election fiasco of 2000). What is the point of this interview? What's he gonna say...

    "If i were to do it I would wear nice dress shoes, prob wear gloves that were too small, and use a knife?...Again, that's what I would have done, if I did it...which I didn't"

    How much detail will he go into?

    If I HAD kids, which I DON'T by the way, should I let them stay up to watch it?

    I don't even get it. What is the point of telling the world how he "would have done it". Lets just give him the benefit of the doubt, and say he didn't, why would he then go up and say how he would have? What does that get him?
    And now that we're done giving him the benefit of the doubt, we already know he did it, so why does he have to lie and tell us a different scenario of how he would have?

    Utterly tasteless. Good night to read a book.
    My Girlfriend said to me..."How many guitars do you need?" and I replied...."How many pairs of shoes do you need?" She got really quiet.

    Not sure. What i do know is that a supposedly impartial, unbiased jury, who sat through every stitch of evidence presented, couldn't bring themselves to a conviction. They know alot more about thew case than i do.

    didn't another jury find him guilty in the civil trial?

    I'm not a lawyer, but i don't think they're exactly the same thing.

    guilty.

    i remember this trial well.
    i also remember being more disappointed than shocked when the verdict was read out.
    the prosecution would have won if mark furman wasn't a big fat liar.
    and remember DNA evidence wasn't the big thing back then as it is now.
    the violence displayed at the murder scene was equal to the passion felt by the killer. make no mistake this was a crime of the utmost passion.

    they're not...one is beyond a reasonable doubt and the other is preponderance of evidence...I believe both can be settled by a jury though.
