In a rare moment of taste, decorum, and social responsibility News Corp. has decided to cancel OJ Simpson's 'If I Did It' TV special where Simpson speaks in hypothetical terms about how he would have committed the 1994 slayings of his ex-wife Nicole and her friend Goldman.

I and senior management agree with the American public that this was an ill-considered project,' said Rupert Murdoch, News Corp. chairman. 'We are sorry for any pain that this has caused the families of Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson.'

We can only hope that they insert an episode of 'America's Trashiest Weddings' in it's place.

Since when did Rupert Murdoch sport a conscience? The only reason he pulled the plug is plain and simple - he wouldn't have made money off of it. Affiliates pulling out, bookstores refusing to sell the book - and I doubt he'd have gotten any advertisers.I'm just glad this disgusting episode is over with.

Whatever his motivations, I'm very glad he cancelled this piece of crap. OJ needs to go crawl in a hole somewhere.
