Simpson Trial

The O.J. Simpson trial (read media circus) has only just begun, and I am sick to death of it. What little interest might have remained was dispelled by the aggressiveness of the shark-like media in their feeding frenzy.

Unable to believe that I am the only one suffering from this reaction, I have polled friends and groups, and no one is watching! Where are the people the media insist are eating all this up?

Enough, already! Back off! Stop giving the stage to lawyers who are in it because of the high visibility, and to a man who, years ago, excelled in a children’s game.

* After watching the Simpson proceedings interminably I have come to the conclusions that it’s not a matter of guilt or innocence but how you play the game.

* Why not hold the Simpson trial at the Music Center? That would eliminate the disruption at the Criminal Courts Building, and being nearby would be convenient. Let the government charge $40 a ticket. The estimated four-to-six-month run would recoup some of the money this trial is costing us.

* The arrogance and exercise of power by Judge Lance Ito is deplorable. How could he reserve seats in the courtroom for his parents (Jan. 24) at the expense of the unbiased public? Does he think this is show business?
