Isn't it a bit much to capitalize on oj's murders by publishing his book and pimping it on fox news?

Giving that bastrd air time and paying him for it is scraping the barrel..It goes to show you that the media doesnt have any agenda other than making money..

The Fox network that is airing this piece of insanity has no connection to the Fox News Network. Murdoch doesn't care any more about decency and morality than Simpson does. Money rings Murdoch's bell and O.J. is in love with himself. We consumers have a choice to NOT buy the book and to NOT watch the movie. My sympathies are with Nicole's children and Ron Goldman's family. O. J. needs to pay up the judgement from the civil case that found him responsible for their deaths. And he should shut his stupid pie-hole before both his children walk...RUN...out of his life for disrespecting their murdered mother.

Yes, I think it is very wrong. Cruel and insensive to the families of the victims, and disgusting to extend OJ's fifteen minutes of fame.
As other posters have pointed out, this is not about party politics. Why would you just ask Republicans? Everyone should think this is terrible. Fox news does not only appeal to republicans - my mom who is a big liberal democrat watches some shows on fox too.

The OJ propaganda is the least of my beef with Murdoch.
While he isn't the only person or entity I'm disturbed by, I'll focus on Rupert since you brought him up.
A single owner should not be able to hold so many media outlets; this seriously restricts the free, truthful,and un-biased flow of information in our country.
Radio, cable and network- TV, and the printed medium: Murdoch owns and controls interests in all of these venues.
Our media outlets must be administered with a great deal of diversified control.
I really dislike the hippies of the '60 and '70s, but they championed one admirable cause-- the guarantee of a monopoly-free media.
Today, this is threatened, and Rupert is but one of a handful of owners that vet and distribute all we see and hear.
This is worrisome.

It is gross that this "man" could think of profitting off of the murder of his wife's children - how can he hurt his own children this way. While I understand a court of law acquitted him - how could an innocent man in his right mind even think up that kind of plot?
Instead of Rupert Murdoch why isn't your problem with ReganBooks, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers?? Regan refused to say what Simpson is being paid for the book but ..................She said he came to her with the idea.

You libs want to blame every thing on the Republicans and in reality it is the Democratic party who supports OJ and the fact that he is confessing on Fox just irritates you Dems, because you still believe he is Innocent and would prefer him to bust your little bubble on CNN.

Said it in an earlier post, I'll say it again. Fox News Channel is not airing the video. Fox Channel is. They are two completly different channels. Fox News analyst were condemning Fox Channel for thinking about airing it today.

I think what fox news is doing in this situation is dead wrong.However,they have a business to run in a profitable manner.As long as America has an appetite for immoral crap like that,there will be someone willing to sell it.

I don't think this is political at all, everyone I know of either party think it is sick and bad to do this.
All of the republican (right) talk shows have denouced this completely.
I have not heard from the Liberal side as of thier view point, air america was silent about it either way today
