O.J. Simpson Finally Hypothetically Admits It
Suppose this post were about a famous former football star accused of murdering his ex-wife and her friend in a 1994 trial of epic proportions. If so, it might very well reference an upcoming television interview with O.J. Simpson on Fox where, according to the network, "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." Furthermore, "[i]n 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 segments, which air on Nov. 27 and Nov. 29, will promote Simpson's new book If I Did It. You can find an AP story here and a video clip of the interviews in characteristically subdued Fox fashion here.

Apparently O.J. Simpson will soon hypothetically confess to the murders for which he was acquitted some time ago. As David Lat points out, the wisdom of the Anti-Federalists makes this feasible, because it means that California cannot try him again.... [Read More]

I don't think you're going to get a lot of Fox watchers here anyway.
Is it a boycott if you wouldn't do it anyway?

In my alternate reality crystal ball, I see CNN (not Fox) broadcasting this -- and Fox's talking heads ripping CNN a new one for such pandering and appeasement of a man who is hated by god-fearing, law-abiding Fox viewers everywhere....

I believe the man got away with murder,but evidently murder pays pays-as long as Fox News is concerned.

It's not Fox News...it's the Fox normal channel. The Simpsons channel. This has nothing to do with Brit Hume, people.

Both Fox and Fox News are owned by Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation. I don't think it's unreasonable to asume that the O'Reilly/Hannity blowhard team will go easier on their corporate cousins in Daddy Rupert's empire....
