How can the Bee posiibly hope to compete with the Times? (UPDATED)

nicole’s last word: “Hurts!”

Found via Joel Engel, the New York Times’ obit for Simpson contains this showstopping moment:

O.J. Simpson, who ran to fame on the football field, made fortunes as a Black all-American in movies, advertising and television, and was acquitted of killing his former wife and her friend in a 1995 trial in Los Angeles that mesmerized the nation, died on Wednesday. He was 76.

The cause was cancer, his family announced on social media. The announcement did not say where he died.

A jury in the murder trial, which held up a cracked mirror to Black and white America, cleared Mr. Simpson, but the case ruined his world.

As Engel replies, “Nicole and Ron slaughtered. O.J.’s world ruined.”

UPDATE: Give ‘em credit for trying, but this will probably prove true before the sun goes down.
