It's Back: Infamous O.J. Book Has New Publisher
This from Publishers Weekly, 8/13/2007 6:33:00 AM
Martin has not yet revealed the name of the publisher, which she said is based in New York, but promises that Simpson's manuscript will remain intact, supplemented with "key commentary."
A week ago PW broke the story that Martin was shopping the manuscript on behalf of the family of Ron Goldman, which was awarded rights to the book last month in a Miami bankruptcy court. Speaking of the material that will be added to the new version, Martin told PW last week, "But If I Did It was OJ Simpson's narrative, this will be the Goldman's narrative."
The publisher, Martin and the Goldman family will all contribute a portion of their proceeds from the sale to the Ron Goldman Foundation for Justice, the spokesman said.
The book was originally commissioned by Judith Regan at ReganBooks, whose parent company NewsCorp killed the project and a short time later fired Regan.

Will the publisher be anonymous? I wonder how it feels to be sleazier than Rupert Murdoch.
