OJ Simpson confession book is sure to be a best seller
According to the Book Standard, the National Enquirer is reporting that O.J. Simpson has been writing a tell all book, and it includes a description of the murder of Nicole Simpson. The confession is prefaced by some sort of a statement that it's a hypothetical account, and the book is to be called "If I Did It."
I may be the only one in the world that didn't watch the hearings or follow the case (except when getting my hair cut), but even I know that the glove didn't fit. And everyone seems to want to hear the rest of the story. O.J. Simpson reportedly got $3.5 million for the book. I'm sure the publisher is going to make much more than that on sales. No word yet on whether there will be an e-book. |

If he is a sportsman of a typical US sports game [American Soccer or so], I really don't know, nearly nobody will be interested in his book here in old Europe.

But it probably won't be a typo the next time. |

Personally I tend to steer away from media hype.
Here we call them "Fouille merde" trans. S..T diggers! There are far too many journalists for the quantity of potential news, although I fully appreciate the work from the technoguys we have here at MR. We don't thank you enough! Kudos guys! Last edited by yvanleterrible; 10-20-2006 at 01:52 PM. |
