THE MEDIATIZATION OF THE OJ SIMPSON CASE - TATJ...

F. Scott Fitzgerald once said: »Show me a hero  and I'll write you a tragedy.« In the 1990s 
nobody fell deeper than O.J. Simpson. Once considered a national treasure  the athlete was
accused of brutally slaying his ex-wife Nicole Brown and her friend Ronald Goldman on June 12 
1994. Within days  the media and public developed an unprecedented obsession with the story 
turning a murder investigation and trial into a sensationalized reality show. Tatjana Neubauer
examines the mediatization  deliberate manipulation  and the simplification of popular criminal
trials for profit on television. She demonstrates that TV conflated legal proceedings into
entertainment programming by commodifying events  people  and places.
