    Glad they cancelled it. I heard of an online petition going around today, but never found it. Glad to see this though...

    i had really just thought the publisher saw dinero and wanted to print it to make some major loot and make him look dumber than he already does.

    im glad that the publisher has a soul!

    Love it!

    Wow...I'm impressed!!!

    I'm sure some other sleazy publication will pick up the book and run with it.

    I wonder if they will demand their money back?

    Thank GOD! I was horrified by this when I heard that they were interviewing him on the "this is how I would have done it..." Promoting domestic violence and having absolutely no respect for the families who continue to suffer without their loved ones.

    I'm so glad that someone did something to stop this. He shouldn't be getting any type of residual off of anything related to the victims or their families even if he claims he is "innocent". To me, if you are going to be interviewed on "this is how I would have done it" he's admitting cowardly that yes, he did do it, and this is his way of confessing. Sick man. Double jeopardy rules out being tried again.

    Do you think anyone would even buy it if it were released?

    I wanted to see the special. They should have run it.

    There are always other laws to charge him under.... But I doubt if that man will ever be seen in California again.

    The book made it up to #47 on amazon's pre-release list before Amazon cancled the sale of the book, so obviously someone wanted it.

    ^ Probably the same people who acquited him and were happy to see him get off with a "Not Guilty".

    Personally, I think there should be THREE choices. Guilty, Not Guilty, and Innocent. Guilty means the case was proven beyond reasonable doubt...not guilty means it was not...and innocent means that the person is innocent. That way, those that are innocent of charges don't have a stigma attached to them that could be misinterpreted.

    In OJ's case, it should have been, "Guilty, but not proven." heh
