who o.j. simpson became.hat is why there is a notion of this guy being framed by the lapd and considering the choices that he made at his relationship with the cops. how did this all become what it did? let's strip it down to the essence and reengage with who they were, as people. host: one thing that i had difficulty with, even with it being pretty clear, o.j. simpson had murdered and taken two lives -- it was the inability to give his legal team respect. the parameters of what a trial is. the idea of what a trial actually is. i thought they were spectacular, man. a desire to write that off and say they bent the rules but if somebody had my life in their hands? that is the way the system is setup to act. i felt like it was a very -- it is very hard for people to come to the idea of a cop doing his job, for instance. ezra: they are all just doing their jobs. and there are different planes that we want to absorb this. and in the end, the defense attorneys did their job and they did it spectacularly. host: and

"stranger things" is phenomenal and it was definitely the water cooler show of the year, but i don't think it's enough to take out "westworld." that is of course an hbo mega hit. everyone was talking about it. and of course if "this is us" were to win it would be a huge upset as a network show has not won a golden globe for best drama since 2006 and that was "grey's anatomy." >

it's like o.j. simpson still looking for the real killers.e is there's consensus in the intelligence community about russia's culpability, the president-elect is going to get a formal briefing on this. but he's been shooting off the twitter storm without getting all of the facts because i think he's so sensitive about the implication that somehow it delegitimizes his election. i think what the incoming administration needs to be to us canned on is the fact that a new administration, russia is not just going to put down all of its tools to disrupt america. and trump has got to start thinking about the presidency and the country at large as being vulnerable to russia and not just the specter of him being seen as an illegitimate president. >> okay. david gregory, thank you. great to see you. thanks for the to the bomb tyne. >>> all right, so after we went through months of trumping the media by only tweeting, the president-elect has set a date for his first official press conference since winning the election. that said, they were kind of squish
