O.J. and Me

I think he did it.

I don't want to read how some writer thinks he did it.

I don't care.

It makes no difference to me whether the money from this book goes to the Goldmans or O.J. It's still a despicable book, albeit one that certainly has the right to be published.

I just don't think there's a need for it to be published. I find it really hard to believe that there are more than a thousand people world-wide who want to read this book.

I thought it would be like Jayson Blair's BURNING DOWN MY MASTER'S HOUSE: My Personal Descent into Madness that Shook the New York Times. I think this sold 1200 copies, all of which were purchased by employees of the Times.

Who will be buying the O.J. book?

Fred Rosen on Star Jones

I know it's last minute and you probably won't catch this, but my client, Fred Rosen, is going to be on Star Jones' Court TV show today at 3:00 to talk about THERE BUT FOR THE GRACE OF GOD..., his book on the survivors of infamous serial killers. They're flying in one of his victims to be on the show.

I would have been there with him, but today is my son's 15th birthday, so one must make choices.
