That is not a correct statement. I think the view of the verdict was strong one way or the other, but roughly evenly split.

You say roughly evenly split, I say widely.  I have no idea how that equates to my statement being incorrect, but I think we basically agree.

If you re-polled people re: OJ I would guess almost no one would say the jury found correctly. Yet many -- even a wide number of people! -- thought that the jury got it right. That's interesting, given current perception and presentation of the trial.

Or Chris Rock's take...
