Oprah to Feature Showdown Between Goldman and Brown Families Over If I Did It
By Jane • Aug 27th, 2007 • Category: Publishing News • •The Goldman’s were granted the rights to the OJ hypothetical confession and shopped it to Beaufort Books, a sometimes vanity press where authors contribute monetarily to the publication of their books. The Brown family is not happy about the publication of the book. Oprah has booked the two camps for a high charged Springer like episode. Fred and Kim Goldman will face criticism from Denise Brown on September 13, 2007.
Jane is a long time romance reader whose passion is, you guessed it, reading. Jane also does not like to talk about herself in the third person, but apparently this is the way that this biography thing works (although in a true biography, someone else would be writing this blurb). Anyway, currently Jane loves urban fantasy authors Patricia Briggs and Ilona Andrews. She's really excited about this year's crop of historicals including Joanna Bourne's The Spymaster's Lady and Sherry Thomas' Private Arrangements and the upcoming Loretta Chase Her Scandalous Ways.
She's looking for a good contemporary author. Email her with a recommendation!

My opinion may change as I learn more about the situation, but right now, I’m on the side of the Brown family. But I don’t think it’s so wise of them to go on Oprah, since I expect this showdown will only lead to higher sales of the book.
Hey im going to be watching during the show - and personally im outraged that this book is going to hit barnes and noble across the country. its practically a guide to how to get away with murder!
anyways, i’ll be in a live chat http://www.babbledog.com/invite/267350/oprah if you want to join me! thanks :-)
