Following up the Media Blog item last month on O.J. Simpson’s grisly book If I Did It, Here’s How It Happened, Fred Goldman is scheduled to go on Oprah today to tout the macabre book he took away from Simpson, about how Simpson might have killed his wife Nicole Brown and Fred’s son Ron Goldman. Goldman hasn’t changed a word of the text or the title. But he has reduced the size of the word “If” to the level of the microscopic.

With the subtitle, the cover now appears to read: “I Did It: Confessions of the Killer.”

The Washington Post has more:

Fred Goldman is 66 years old now. He lives in the Arizona desert a good five miles of barbed wire and cactus from the nearest sunblasted shopping center. His son, Ron, is buried back in California, but do not think that this geographical distance means that he has put his son’s slaying behind him.
Goldman has never let the most notorious murder case in modern American history, the O.J. Simpson trial, move “more than a centimeter from the surface of the brain,” and today he launches a bizarre offensive against Simpson, the man whom a civil court — and many Americans — consider to be someone who got away with murder.
“I made a promise to Ron,” Goldman says in a long, late-afternoon interview in his modest home, “that I would pursue this bastard. That we would never let this go.”
… Goldman also added an introduction, prologue and afterword, by himself and others, that recasts Simpson’s book as both an indictment and a confession by the man himself. The book will be in stores by this weekend, and more than 100,000 copies have already been ordered, according to Goldman’s literary agent. The profits will go toward settling a minuscule fraction of the $38 million Simpson owes both Goldman’s family and Nicole Brown’s estate, which is devoted entirely to the two children she had with Simpson.
