our correspondent david willis in los angeles reflected on the reactions to simpson's death. the most pointed reaction being that of ron goldman's father, fred, who in an interview with nbc news today was asked about the death of oj simpson, and he replied simply, "it's no great loss to the world, just a further reminder of ron being gone". and the goldman family, of course, has fought for more than a quarter of a century, in fact, to collect on that $33.5 million civil court award, now, that is thought with interest to amount to around $100 million in today's money. and there are reports that the goldman family intends now to go after the estate of oj simpson in an attempt to get much of that unpaid civil court award, if you like. as far as other reaction is concerned, caitlynjenner, who was previously married to the american entrepreneur, krisjenner, whose ex—husband was robert kardashian, he was part of the oj dream team of lawyers on the social media platform x today saying simply, "good riddance". and david, it seems like there's no love lost from certain members of the

pecker was talking about him and about multiple conversations that david pecker and donald trump had, going well into 2018, that showed, willie just noted, that trump had an awareness that karen mcdougal had come forward, that he consulted with david pecker about what to do, that he was aware that david pecker had paid karen mcdougal, and he perpetually checked in with david pecker to see how karen mcdougal was doing. in other words, was she sufficiently happy to keep others quiet? when she wasn't, at a point in time after she had sued the "enquirer" and wanted to be released from her non-disclosure agreement, trump was furious to see the interview with anderson cooper. pecker recounted that information, as well, willie. >> it's interesting. shorthand for this trial for some has been the stomy daniels hush money case, but karen mcdougal was the focus yesterday. $150,000 that mr. pecker says he paid. hired her for a job. it was kind of a no-show job as a fitness writer, something like that. how does karen mcdougal factor into this case? how central is she? >> karen mcdougal is not central to the crime itself. remember, again,
