Oprah and Mark Fuhrman’s Lovefest

Oprah has been on a sentimental journey this last year of her show and she is bringing back memorable guests from the past. Today she brought back Mark Fuhrman. Fuhrman achieved fame or infamy depending on what you think of him from his involvement in the OJ Simpson case. She just let him come on and free flow today. Let him tell it everyone on that case screwed up, but him and his partner. He called the jury “morally bankrupt.” I was amazed that Winfrey let him sit and tell his truth virtually uninterrupted. Fuhrman castigated the media and Oprah asked him if he hated the media so why was he now on Fox News? His response boiled down to they are different. This was an opportunity for him to recite his truth and Oprah provided him with the podium. The jury saw all the evidence we didn’t. We all have our opinions on the case, but they looked at the facts and since they did not see it like the majority did their intelligence is often questioned. The prosecution had a duty to convince the jury of OJ’s guilt and they failed. So to sit and hearFuhrman say they were blinded by celebrity makes me sick, but to have Oprah nod in agreement made me sicker.


Note: the clip shows the kind of guy Fuhrman really is.
