O.J. Confession: “…BLOODMONEY”

Posted by liaison on November 22, 2006

Please, please, please, won’t somebody make O.J. just S.T.F.U.  AND GO AWAY!!!!

<> (Here’s what he told the Associated Press today.)

LOS ANGELES –

O.J. Simpson told The Associated Press he participated in the ill-fated “If I Did It” book and interview project for one reason — personal profit, and he acknowledged that any financial gain was “blood money.”

“This was an opportunity for my kids to get their financial legacy,” Simpson said in interviews this week with the AP after the book deal was abandoned by its publisher. “My kids understand. I made it clear that it’s blood money, but it’s no different than any of the other writers who did books on this case.”

The part that just sent me into hysterics was the line about his kids financial legacy. LOL, for the love of God. Please, someone take this guy out of the limelight before we all throw-up in one massive National Thanksgiving Day Upheaval. ……….Ooooops, too late.
O.J., You and Murdoch are Skanky-Like-Skunks, okay. Just go away forever will you, go throw yourself off a bridge, or under a train, or something, …… oh never mind, this is like carrying on a conversation with a brick.

RUPERT MURDOCH SEES THE LIGHTS – MILLIONS OF US!!

Posted by liaison on November 21, 2006

UPDATE TO THE FOX – MURDOCH – O.J. SIMPSON BOYCOTT:

Murdoch, this afternoon backed down and agreed to not air the O.J. non-confession and to not publish the book.

Thank goodness for the decency of the American people to stand up against Murdoch and O.J. Had this contest of wills gone another week, I personally believe that FOX and Murdoch would have suffered great losses. Ahhhhh, the internet is a powerful tool.

I just posted the following, in reply to Nora Ephron’s “SAY IT AIN’T SO, RUPE” at Huffington Post. (Thank goodness for Arianna Huffington over there. She is a genuine lioness – fearless.)

Murdoch and O.J. Simpson deserve each other. They’re both skanky-like-skunks.

They are both out of touch with reality – the American zeitgeist – both of them thinking that O.J. is some loveable little teddy bear whose media image can be rehabilitated. (I shouldn’t be so harsh on them, as I, myself, was equally wrong as to the “Clean Up Charles Manson Projects” that have attempted to rehabilitate Manson’s image for years only to fail tragically time and again.)

What a tragedy it must seem to FOX Sports that the good American people simply won’t play their part in cleaning up O.J. Murdoch could almost hear O.J. again, up in the press box, screaming hysterically, “I thought I could cut and run, but just look at this mother____ fly!!”

Murdoch just doesn’t get it. He doesn’t seem to connect well with the American psyche. He and the neocon politicians he’s been pimping are out of touch with with the mainstream thought, as shown in the last elections. We hear from out of his mouthpiece, FOX News, that they are looking out for us, AS IF!

As if we need to be told by these skanky-like-skunk punks from FOX what is morally good for us. Listen to FOX news prattle on about how they know what’s best for us, and then watch them try to foist this Murdoch – O.J. off on us. No thanks, Rupe! We don’t need your skanky-ness guarding the hen house.

The American people were turning up the heat quickly on the boycott of FOX and Murdoch’s other companies. Murdoch, like a deer in the headlights, finally saw the lights – millions of us.

Good Cheer & Congratulations to Bloggers everywhere. You did it again.

Blessings to the Brown and Goldman families.

BOYCOTT OF FOX AND O. J. SIMPSON

Posted by liaison on November 20, 2006

NOVEMBER 20, 2006

ACTION ALERT: Ron Goldman’s Family calls for Boycott of FOX and O. J. Simpson. Join them now!

Sick of hearing about O.J. Simpson, again? Sickened that he’s being paid umpteen millions for this putrid book deal and interview on FOX? You’re not alone. There are millions of our good Americans who rightly see this as morally repugnant. We know in our hearts that this interview should not be aired on national television, and especially in the middle of the holiday season. I have spoken with people to get diverse opinions, and there is no one – right or left of center, or middle of the road – who is saying, “Hurrah for O.J.” – NOT A SINGLE ONE!

No one but Rupert Murdoch. He is the owner of HarperCollins (who is publishing the book), and FOX Broadcasting (who is airing the two hour interview with Simpson), and FOX News (who is hyping the book and interview). Murdoch owns NEWS Corp that owns them all. Bill O’Reilly, who works for Murdoch on FOX News is hyping the mess, all the while claiming to be the Culture Warrior (O’Reilly’s new book). He is, in all honesty, calling for a boycott of the interview and book, but then states that FOX News is in no way affiliated with FOX Broadcasting. That’s dishonest. At his boss’s behest he is deflecting criticism from FOX NEWS while hyping this travesty on FOX NEWS, the station he protects for his boss.

The Simpson non-confession will air Nov 27 & 29, at the end of the ratings Sweeps Week, in Murdoch’s skanky attempt to boost FOX’s ratings, and then be able to claim higher market share, and thus sell more advertising. Murdoch and FOX and HarperCollins are as morally repugnant as Simpson. This is murderous bloodmoney on which they are all profiting.

WE must speak powerfully to Murdoch and his companies, on behalf of our beliefs in American decency. We must act immediately!

I have, therefore, made my decision to join Ron Goldman’s Family in boycotting all FOX channels, HarperCollins, News Corp., Murdoch, and all of his companies and products. I will not watch FOX channels, or buy HarperCollins books for as long as it takes Murdoch to clean up his act. I urge you, too, to join the Goldman Family’s boycott.

Here some of the ways you can participate in the Goldman Family’s Boycott of FOX:

1. Email this information to everyone on your email lists. Believe me, they will all be grateful to learn of ways they can speak out on this.

2. Post this email on your blog, website, personal site, forum, or any other way you can think of to inform people.

3. Tell your friends, family, neighbors, groups, co-workers, and fellow church members. They will agree with you on this. They just haven’t been energized yet. But they are sickened by this and need this information.

4. This is very important: Sign the Goldman Boycott Signup at: Don’t Pay OJ.Com (http://www.dontpayoj.com/)

5. Sign this: Boycott Petition in response to FOX’s OJ Simpson television program

http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/134434237

6. Call your local FOX affiliates and complain to them. Tell them you are disgusted and that you are boycotting their stations. Look under television stations in the yellow pages for FOX. Or, you can use this link to their website to list their affiliates: http://www.fox.com/links/affiliates.htm There are email addresses here, too:   FOX News Channel comments write to:     comments@foxnews.com

7 Write a letter to your local newspaper editor. Be nice and polite.

8. Make some copies of this email to hand out or post on bulletin boards.

9. Call a talk radio station and give them your thoughts, calmly and politely.

10. Turn off all FOX channels – Broadcasting, FX, Sports, News.

11. Don’t buy any more HarperCollins books.

12. Urge any FOX employees you might speak to, to call in sick on the days the shows are to air, Nov. 27 & 29, 2006.

13. Email Bill O’Reilly and urge the “Culture Warrior” to resign or donate a year’s pay to the Goldman Family.

We need for this blackout of FOX to continue throughout this entire time, through Dec 1. This would cause maximum impact on their ratings and cause the most loss to their ad revenues once the ratings week is over.

Please take action now. Do it for the Goldman Family and all that is decent in America. Please make a small start by forwarding this email to the people on your list. And then sign the Goldman Boycott: www.dontpayoj.com
