No Shame

Seems our favourite reality TV channel, Fox is going to air an interview with OJ Simpson called "O.J. Simpson: If I Did It, Here's How it Happened", where Simpson will describe how he would have killed his wife and his friend.....that is, assuming he did actually kill them, which of course he has been found not guilty of. He is promoting his book "If I did it...".

It is almost like he is admitting to the murders now when because of double jeopardy, he is guaranteed he can't be charged again. What is the point of this interview? I dont understand why OJ is giving this "unrestricted" interview and why Fox will air it. Does the world have no shame?

In the article it says:

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.

It is disgusting. More yet, it is disturbing.

I agree with you - its kinda so bizarre .. how could he bring himself to write a book like that ? its in such bad taste .. Fox or any other news channel airing it is kinda not surprising .. its what people will watch .. improves the ratings .. which brings up the question - the media in the US is accused of self-censorship etc... what do you think about that?
