Default Oprah Winfrey to interview the Goldman family

From the Orlando Sentinal

Oprah Winfrey's exclusive: Brown, Goldman familiies meet about O.J. Simpson's book
Posted on Aug 23, 2007 9:16:35 AM

Is this a good thing or a bad thing? I'm leaning toward the latter, but I'm sure Oprah Winfrey will command a big audience either way.

She has lined up an interview -- confrontation may be a better word -- between the survivors of murder victims Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson. The survivors will argue about the publication of the O.J. Simpson book "If I Did It." Winfrey's show will air Sept. 13.

Fred Goldman, Ron's father, has won the rights to publish the book in which Simpson explains how he would have killed Ron and Nicole -- if he had committed the crimes. Denise Brown, Nicole's sister, is pushing a boycott of the book.

Denise Brown, Fred Goldman and Kim Goldman, Ron's sister, will appear on Winfrey's show. And the showdown could make for some unsettling television. Do you want to go there again?

Wow, that'll be a studio filled with people I don't like:
Oprah, the Goldman's and Brown. Amazing!

It all depends on where Oprah is going with this.
These are the kind of white people she usually likes
to associate herself with: reasonably affluent, reasonably
pretty.......
But - although she has distanced herself from him for
obvious reasons - O.J. IS black.
Then: the topic will be feelings opposite financial gain.
Isn't Oprah usually a big champion for "forgiveness" and
"closure and moving on"?

I think it could only be a worse show if the host were
Nancy Grace.

Well, this will be interesting...I may have to tape it to watch it, my usual Oprah response is to change the channel really quick, but somehow I want to watch this, it may take me a few tries. I do feel for Ron Goldman's parents...

I had a longtime love a long time ago that said that you have to listen to your enemies, so that you can know what they are up to. Poprah is not really an enemy, she's just a marketing whore, but OJ is an enemy, so I will watch this. Thanks......or IS Poprah the enemy? HMMMMMMMMMMM.........

I'll be watching. It will be interesting to see Denise confront Fred Goldman. Not that I think the Browns are that much better than the Goldmans. It will be heated, for sure.

This bitch makes millions off of crap shows like this.
People go to work everyday, working their fingers to the bone, barely making ends meet and she's worth billions from some dumb shit like this.
I loathe this woman.

You know I love a good bitch fight as the next person, but I truly have no desire to see this. I'm really over the whole thing. I feel very bad for the two families, but, THEY are the ones that continue to bring this up (and OJ since he 'wrote' this piece of shit). And I'm sure they have their reasons for it, but seriously, it may be time to let them and the situation go. I'm sure its a lot easier said than done, but maybe TRY.

True. And of course her favorite bridge "Of course, not having been
through what you've been through, I have NO idea what it must
feel like, but....."

Not that I'm defending O.J. but I lost sympathy for both at the time of
the original trial.
For Fred Goldman because certainly at the beginning of the trial, but
even well into it, he boasted that the US Justice system was the best
in the world and that they had full faith that the jury would come to
the only right conclusion because they were decent citizens bla bla bla.
The minute they acquited O.J. (and of course I understand he was
in tremendous pain from losing his child) he said that there was no
Justice, the system was a travesty, the jurors were out of their minds
etc. the system had no meaning if it worked the way it had worked....
Denise Brown took the cake during her testimony when she said
she and a date had double dated with OJ and Nicole and they ended
the night at OJ's home. They drank and OJ wanted her to not be so
loud or else she and her date should leave and she, drunk, got even
louder telling him he could not order her around and then he'd dared
to throw her and her date out of HIS house.....
When I heard that testimony I remember thinking what you're
supposed to do when you have beligerent, drunk guests in your
house who won't comply with your request: let them just wreck
the house? It also turned out OJ had paid thousands of dollars for
some course or business of hers, too... I guess that gave her
the right to be a bad guest.

I hate it when people first take advantage of somebody and
later assume total innocence themselves. OJ was and is way
out of line, but the Goldmans or the Browns aren't all that, either.

The Goldman's and Browns are nothing but money grubbing media whores, and now Oprah is getting her cut as their pimp. Three sets of people I cannot stand and do not want to hear from all in one show...I'm pretty positive I won't be tuning in for this craptastic episode.

And then she'll probably bring in Maya Angelou to read one of her poems.
