O.J. versus The Debate

The apocalypse is not as nigh as it seems, if media interest in the sensational as opposed to the politically profound is any indication.

At a downtown courthouse, O.J. Simpson was bound over for trial on kidnapping and other charges in connection with his efforts to reclaim memorabalia. At UNLV, Democratic presidential candidates debated.

Which attracted more media?

Clark County District Court distributed 284 media credentials for the O.J. event.

And CNN distributed 300 media credentials for the debate.
