O.J.'S NON-CONFESSION. TOO MUCH EVEN FOR MURDOCH?

Have we reached the point of diminishing returns for Outrage (capital O variety)? If the Emperor of News Corp. and Fox Television gets out of this kitchen, maybe we have, for a while. Predicting blossoming enlightenments is risky, however, so I'll back off. Hype is like magma; it expands, heats up and explodes, as opposed to melting into the earth. It's prudent to expect more, hotter, Outrageous eruptions, not fewer. But now that Rupert has blinked, can we expect them from the NC-Fox machine? Is Rupert mellowing?
