I have mentioned previously that it might be speculated that Rev. Al Sharpton was being asked to comment on the jailing/release/jailing of Ms. Hilton

as a diversion on behalf of the Hilton family. In essence it is plausible that the Hilton family has tried to change the tone of this story, away from the liberal application of punishment against Ms. Hilton, to one that is more racially motivated. I stated,
“But be ready for the general news media to spin this in to a race issue. If they do it will divert attention from Paris Hilton to Rev. Al Sharpton. It will obscure what happened with issues that while real, do not apply here. Its smoke and mirrors played in front of televisions across America. And it may well happen.”
I continue to feel this is the case. In furtherance of the abovementioned quote is the fact that now Mr. OJ Simpson is being pursued for comment. Now I have had my disagreements with both Mr. Simpson

“Personally I will say this. The charges were wrong and the police failed in the investigation. ... Also little things bother me about the evidence. One item that always stuck in my head is the single bloody sock. If a sock is soaked with blood, so therefore are the feet, and if this sock is found next to a bed on a white carpet where are the bloody footprints? ... As for the trial, it was an example of what money can do for a person. If this were a rich white athlete or other entertainer, I don’t see there being quite the same outrage. The defense did what they were paid for....
and with Rev. Sharpton

“… Well, Rev. Sharpton did start the National Youth Movement in 1971. In his bid to run for president in 2004 he campaigned on issues such as: Increase political consciousness and awareness, affirmative action and anti-death penalty policy, economic justice at home, and others. … The Rev. Sharton is not known for these things though. The Tawana Brawley case of November 28, 1987 is what made him a national figure. He is also known for his slurs to Jews, Koreans and Whites in general. … deserve quality as opposed to a flashy and questionable voice in an arena as important as politics? …”
