Calling the news in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…
• O.J. Simpson haters better not reserve a jail cell yet. The trial continues to get more bizarre, as a key witness admitted he contacted TMZ.com before calling the police about the alleged O.J.-led raid. Then again, Simpson probably called his publicist before notifying his lawyer. It was also revealed that Simpson may have been unaware his accomplices were carrying firearms. This makes sense, because as we’ve noted before, everyone knows Simpson’s weapon of choice is a hunting knife.
• As expected, Charles Prince is leaving his Citigroup CEO role with a king’s ransom—about $42 million in stocks, a bonus and more. Granted, it looks lousy when compared to “retiring” Merrill Lynch CEO Stan O’Neal’s $160+ million deal. But it sure beats the Average Joe’s severance package. By about $42 million.
