Lady, your logic is not Earth logic.

This is a statement from Judith Regan explaining why she's publishing OJ's book "If I Did It." Why is she doing it? Because she was beaten by her husband:
I made the decision to publish this book, and to sit face to face with the killer, because I wanted him, and the men who broke my heart and your hearts, to tell the truth, to confess their sins, to do penance and to amend their lives.
Wait - what? Because a NYT bestseller is exactly the same thing as a guilty verdict. Right.

Regan also says she's doing it for closure, not money:
What I do know is I didn't pay him. I contracted through a third party who owns the rights, and I was told the money would go to his children.
In other words, she doesn't know what's going to happen to the money and isn't bothering herself too much about it.

A few other tidbits about the book: It was not written by OJ. OJ did not sign the contract for the book. OJ does not own the rights for the book. I don't even understand what's going on anymore.

Good taste prevails

Rupert Murdoch has cancelled the OJ book and interview, calling it "ill-conceived." Even Rupert Murdoch thinks it's in bad taste. That says something.
