Deja Vu: All O.J., All the Time

O.J. Simpson pleaded "not guilty" Wednesday on charges of kidnapping and armed robbery of two sports memorabilia dealers.

As a sign of the times, now ABCNews.com is offering a widget for your Web page so you can track Orenthal's every legal move.

The site reads: "The trial tracker will live on your page, providing up to the minute news about O.J. Simpson, as well as a countdown to his looming trial."

How closely -- if at all -- will you be following O.J.'s trial this time around?

Not at all. This time OJ will be incarcerated for a long time. He probably will not get parole. It would not surprise me if he does every day for the rest of life behind bars. Sorry Juice

First of all, what was that racist crap about white ppl being afraid of OJ, which was broadcast on 11/30/2007 between 11am and 12pm? The Youthradio writer expressed that white ppl were out to lynch OJ for getting away with murder.
I cannot express how silly OJ has become! That he tried to get his memorabilia back but accidently stole items that weren't even his goes to show what a sad mental state he's in. He has entered the realm of weird news. And no, I can't think of a single white person who actually fears the Juice may come after them.

Unfortunately, since I listen to the radio and watch the news, I will hear every mundane detail. And I could care less about it. I care even less about Brittany Spears or Linsay Lohan - who are these two people and what of significance have they ever done. I wish that the media would concentrate on more wieghty matters, or at least on things that are interesting.
