"Jewish cabal" comment from O.J. publisher draws ire

O.J. Simpson, not Jewish.... Adam Sandler, The Hanukkah Song.

Judith Regan, became the former publisher at HarperCollins after she claimed that a "Jewish cabal" was out to get her.

"It" of course being the murders of his former wife Nicole Simpson and Ron Goldman.
