OJ Simpson Book Pulled
Publishers Weekly: “After the book was condemned by booksellers (many of whom said they would donate proceeds to the victims’ families), media critics and even pundits from Fox News, News Corp. announced in a terse statement that the book and TV special have been dropped. Murdoch said: ‘I and senior management agree with the American public that this was an ill-considered project. We are sorry for any pain this has caused the families of Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson.'”

Nadine Aldred Update
The complaint is not yet available online. Current activity shows that Aldred (aka Millenia Black) & Penguin Group have entered into a stipulation, giving Penguin Group through December 1, 2006 to answer the complaint. Penguin may be buying time in order to settle the suit (thereby avoiding the hours of attorney time it will cost to answer the complaint) before December 1, thus causing plaintiff Aldred to dismiss the case. I will check back in December.
