Now there's a news flash -"... television indulging in distasteful ratings war."


It was only a matter of time before this story reared its ugly head again - and I would say, in TV land, 10 years would just about be the right (or ripe?) time for this to occur.

Unfortunately, EVERYONE will be watching this (just like the trial); and of course, the book will be a best seller, because after all, the two hour interview will only be "tittlating tid-bits" to further whet people's appetities...

So predictable, how the media manipulates...

I saw part of an interview on Larry King last night. The publisher was quoted by King as saying: "I consider this to be his confession..." (Sure you do...)

Well, I consider this to be a money-grab for both Simpson and the Publisher/Media. To hell with the victims, as usual.
