A CNN reporter made a revealing Freudian slip when she suggested people were “happy to see ” OJ Simpson “get away with” it because he was black.
Simpson died after a long battle with cancer at the age of 76, it was announced yesterday.
The former NFL star was cleared of murdering his wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman in 1994 in the so-called “trial of the century,” although many believe the verdict was wrong.
Simpson was later found liable of murder in a civil trial and ordered to pay a $33.5million judgment to the victim’s families.
Commenting on Simpson’s death, CNN’s Stephanie Elam placed it in the context of the race riots of the 1990’s, arguing that people were “happy to see” OJ being cleared as a form of restorative racial justice.
“So many people were just happy to see that someone who is rich and famous, and black, could get away with… er … what other people did in the system as well, too,” said Elam.
Get away with it? You can say that again.
Charlie Kirk accused Elam of “saying the quiet part out loud.”
The media ran defense for Simpson all day yesterday, with the Associated Press lamenting that the murder trial cost OJ “the American dream.”
It cost Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman more than that.
The New York Times complained that “the case ruined his world.”
“Your guilt or innocence is based entirely on your skin color and assumed political loyalties,” commented Auron McIntyre.
Meanwhile, The View host Joy Behar decided to make the whole issue about Trump, falsely claiming he was “found liable for rape.”
