Are We Truly This Starved For Tv?
OJ Simpson's blood matched the blood at the scene of the murders and there was a 1 in 170million chance that it was someone else blood that matches Simpson's. There are only approximately 240 million Americans. There is not even another person (probability wise) in this country that matches Simpson's blood. As a matter of fact, at the time the world only had about 5 billion people. That means globally there are only a few more than 30 statistically that fit the match and this is on the ENTIRE GLOBE.
Johnny Corchoran was a great lawyer and got his guilty client off.
But why does TV need this? A TV show about how he "would" have killed his ex-wife and boyfriend/friend? Come on, this is nothing more than; "How I should have killed my ex-wife and her boyfriend with minimal exposure!" OR maybe it should just be called "How to do it right...the next time".

It has been my opinion for a long time Vincenzo, that when the media 'glorifies' crime as entertainment, the effect on society can only be an escalation in crime rates.
This show (and its accompanying book) sounds like a step-by-step how-to manual in murder, narrated by a (not?) guilty party himself.... which thereby manages to be even worse than the CSI series, which while entertaining and showing how "bad guys" get caught, is somewhat of a "what not do do" manual for criminals, isn't it.
But... violence sells, right?

I saw this headline today and about fell out of my chair! They are paying this psychologically disturbed individual to tell on national TV how, IF he did it, it would have been done. That's not just disturbing, that's sick! $3.5 million to "tell all" -- IF he did it.
Another reason to boycott TV in general and FOX specifically.

Makes you wonder if he reread some of Marcia Clark's prosecution strategy before he taped the show. That might give him a clue as to how he "might" have killed his ex-wife.
I love how I have read reports that he breaks down in tears during a interview saying "he doesn't want his children to hear him speak like this". Hey buddy, what is the difference in them hearing it or reading a copy of your book that you made?
The fact that he roams the florida golf courses unsupervised and not on some sort of communal work detail is enough of stain on the legal system. This is nothing more than him getting on stage to tell us again that he killed 2 people and got away with it. Great...he fails to tell the truth under oath for a federal jury, but will have an epiphany on a show the equivalent of "Jerry Springer".
I do hope the Goldman's get a large chunk of what he got paid for this thing, since I can guarantee you that he hasn't paid them the full amont (33.5 million USD) from the loss he suffered in civil court.
| Rather off topic, but... It is interesting that some think that CSI actually helps the police as well as the criminals. I really had not looked it it that way before. Probably because I thought that they, the police, knew all this stuff already |

As Harry Caray would say..."HOLY COW!". I cannot believe that after all the hype the show WON'T go on. I would love to say that Ruppert Murdoch had a true change of heart, but the cynical side of me says that a "few" people must have written Mr. Murdoch and the potential sponsors of this piece of work and expressed to them the desire that they would have in purchasing their products in the future should this show be aired. If I am wrong, Mr Murdoch actually has shocked me! Either way...it will be a real shame that we wont have to see how he "would" have done it:

I am not sure that I have ever seen anything this hyped get pulled from TV. Does anybody else remember something bigger?

According to this columnist, with the cancellation of the "If I Did It" interview, we have ...

| Missed chance to stare into the face of evil Many would have seen it as a new low in a bottom-feeding culture of lurid fascination. That would have been a dubious benchmark. But it wouldn't have been only that. Maybe watching, hearing and reading America's favorite high-profile defendant in this bizarrely contrived spectacle would also have been, on levels that we tend to ignore or deny, a useful and instructive thing for us to do. I, for one, am sorry it won't happen. ...I'm guessing here about what he might have said or written, but I'd be willing to bet that Simpson's interview would have revealed, unwittingly, some crucial aspects of his psychological makeup. With his cunning attractiveness, impulsiveness, lying, blithe arrogance, insatiable hunger for attention and a compulsion to confess to a crime while maintaining his innocence, Simpson displays the classic signs of a sociopath. If the widely watched interviews did nothing more than expose the public to this particularly subtle and lethal form of personality in action, that might have opened eyes and done some good. ...Even when they don't murder their ex-wives and innocent bystanders and then go free to the golf course, sociopaths cause enormous grief and destruction in the lives they touch. Experts believe that 3 to 4 percent of the population fit the definition, with a preponderance being male. That translates to a whole lot of broken promises, damaged families, wounded children. Monumentally self-centered, chillingly unempathic and untroubled by the workings of guilt, which they regard as a puzzling irrelevancy, sociopaths are eerily well suited to pursue their impulses unimpeded. |
