FOX's Rupert Murdoch made a good decision to pull the plug on the O.J. Simpson TV special ... if the show had aired, it would have made FOX News "Fair & Balanced" over into a FOX News "National Enquirer" wannabe, look-alike.
It just goes to show that even in our seemingly values-neutral culture, there is still a line over which normal citizens know it is improper to cross.
If profits or ratings are the only motive for whether to do a story on network or cable television, then anything goes.
For now, at least, Mr. Murdoch has confirmed that there is still a line in the sand that FOX will not cross over.
