This documentary examines the verdict of the O.J. Simpson trial, pronounced on
3rd October 1995. On that day, in the U.S., millions stopped what they were
doing to witness the O.J. Simpson verdict on television. The case began as a
double homicide near Santa Monica, California and became a media mega-story,
known as the 'trial of the century'. It transfixed the nation and dominated the
public imagination. Includes extensive interviews with the defence, prosecution
and journalists to present their comments and views. Looks at how every aspect
of the trial was recorded, discussed and analysed on television. The media
frenzy spread from the National Enquirer to the New York Times; from cable
networks, such as CNN to the ABC's Nightline. The documentary looks at how the
case has had a lasting impact on American media and polarised public opinion
polls along racial lines. It memorialises the heartache, confusion and tension
released by the O.J. verdict and its impact. Includes also selected media
coverage of the case, including the murder scene, O.J. Simpson's arrest, the
court-room scenes, and the American public reactions.
