Downfall: OJ Simpson, the trial of the century, and how media coverage changed forever
Published 1 year, 4 months ago
Description
To many, OJ Simpson had it all. Wealth, success and fame. In the 1980s and early 1990s he had the world at his feet. But as the public learned of the former NFL player’s death earlier this year, only one thing came to mind - the 1994 murder of Simpson’s ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman. The subsequent murder “trial of the century” became so mammoth that it changed how entertainment and news have been consumed ever since. This episode was originally published in April 2024. Host: Fionnán Sheahan, Guest: Sarah Caden
