In what surely will be looked at as a controversial airing, Fox has set a special four-hour, two-night event titled “O.J. Simpson: If I Did It, Here’s How It Happened”.
Publisher Judith Regan conducted a taped interview with the former athlete and acquitted murder suspect and that will serve as the basis for the event. FOX said that in the interview Simpson “describes how he would have carried out the murders he has vehemently denied committing for over a decade.”
The event will air on November 27th and 29th.
