For all the interviews Charlie Rose did throughout his career, he refused to let his subject answer questions without interrupting almost constantly, which is the main reason he was never in Larry King's league.
…and you’d be asleep within 10 mins. Interviews are about getting information not allowing the guest to filibuster and ramble on. There’s only so much time and they’re trying to get as much out of it than they can. That’s why they are professionals and you are not.

Charlie Rose holds the position that OJ is guilty and he ignores evidence that suggests/proves he didn't. The police tried to frame an innocent man and Charlie Rose seems to refuse that possibility and the evidence that supports it. He doesn't talk about Fuhrman's pleading the 5th when asked if he planted evidence in the trial. Why didn't Rose question why the telephone record of Nicole's conversation with her mother that allegedly exonerate has been sealed to this day? Ans: Because Rose, like many others, want OJ to be guilty when the facts, Nicole's and Ron's alleged drug usage/involvement, the phone call timeline, etc. suggests he was innocent. Rose could care less that 1. Some of the blood at the crime scene has blood preservative EDTA in it that could only have been applied in the crime lab. 2. Vannatter against crime policy took a vial of blood to the crime scene. 3. The bloody sock in the bedroom had blood that seeped from one side to the other which would not have been possible if a foot was in the sock. 4. Mark Fuhrman had a anti-Black history and pled the 5th when asked if he planted evidence. 5. Ron Goldman, trained in martial artist, had defensive words while OJ had no bruises on him. 6. Autopsies of Nicole and Ron by experts conclude that there were two assailants, one right and the other left handed. 7. The phone record between Nicole and her mother is sealed to this day. Rose and others like him seem uninterested in the truth but rather want OJ to be guilty of a crime he did not commit. This is how ingrained in the minds of some anti-Black racism is in America. They reject the idea that white officers could/would frame an innocent Black man when history especially in America and Los Angeles has shown this is not only possible but in light of the facts very likely. They, I suspect, know this to be true. It is evil to want to frame an innocent Black man. Why aren't folk who look like Fuhrman demanding he take a lie detector test and answer the question did he attempt to frame OJ? Ans: They likely know Fuhrman is guilty of trying to frame a Black man consistent with his claims recorded the tapes played in court and don't want the truth exposed. Like a domestic abuser trying to blame their target for the abuse, America claims 'the race card is being played' whenever it's suggested and even proved that anti-Black racism infects and is present in a case. The level of deceit and vileness to try to shame others into not pointing out anti-Black racism is how America operates. Either the facts support anti-Black racism or they don't. In the minds of Rose and others. anti-Black racism isn't allowed to be considered. This is the sickness that pervades this society.
@@thomaskennedy1617 The defense did try to use it. Why aren't you and others demanding the record be unsealed? How is knowing exactly when the call was made and how long it lasted harmful unless doing so shows OJ was framed?
1: This is disputed. EDTA is also found in processed foods, like McDonalds, which Simpson had consumed the night of the murders. The toxicologist, Dr. Frederic Rieders, originally stated there were only two possible sources for the EDTA - from a blood sample tube (i.e. planted) OR through contamination of the bloodstains in the laboratory. But upon redirect cross examination, he admitted that he made an error and that it might not have come from a vial at all. An FBI expert also disputed the claim it was planted. Ultimately the claim of EDTA on the sock coming from Nicole Brown's reference vial was conclusively disproved by Dr. Robin Cotton who showed the DNA in the reference vial was more degraded than the DNA on the sock, proving it could not have come from that vial. 2: True. Vannatter did have a vial of OJ's blood on him, it was in an envelope, he freely admitted that under oath. His reason? Because he wanted to hand it to the person in charge of forensics personally given that it was a high-profile case, but it was still in violation of normal police procedure. I would also point out that he was ordered to give OJ an in-person death notification about Nicole for the same reason (high-profile case), Juice was a celebrity, so cops gave him VIP treatment. Lastly, I would also point out that Vannatter had a pretty good record, not one complaint made against him his entire career, no allegations of racism or brutality. He had no motive to frame OJ. 3: Actually, the socks thing is disputed. I know there was a discrepancy with what time they were discovered/tested because the video camera filming the crime scene was showing one time, but the police were quoting another time. The camera clock had not been readjusted to daylight saving time. You'll have to do more reading into the socks, I can't explain it very well here, it would take up too much time and space. But I can tell you it's disputed. 4: Mark Fuhrman pleaded the fifth to ALL questions, not just that one. He plead the fifth because the prosecution abandoned him after the tapes had come out, he couldn't get any representation, not even his own personal lawyer would touch him, so in order to give the defence nowhere to go, he plead the fifth across the board. See, if he answers one question, then pleads the fifth on another one, it makes him look even more guilty. Pleading the fifth on all is better, but still makes him look bad. Fuhrman did indeed have a racist past, that is true, but people can change. By 1994, he was a detective, had several black friends, including assistant DA Danette Meyers who defended him, and months before the OJ murders, he had actually saved a black man, Aarick Harris, who had been wrongfully charged with the murder of a white man. True story. Harris was done for, but Fuhrman believed he was innocent and went out onto the street to find the real killer. 5: Ron trained in Karate, yes, but he was hardly an expert, nor a match for a raging ex- professional football player armed with a knife. The defensive wounds on his hands likely came from hitting the iron bars of the gate when his arms were flailing. OJ was behind him with a tight grip, Ron couldn't land a blow, he tried clawing away at his arm and head, which is how the cap and gloves were lost, but couldn't actually land any substantive blows. 6: That is false. The autopsy never concluded there were two killers. Thats all speculation. 7: The records were sealed after the defence and the prosecution BOTH stipulated that the last phone call made was around 21:44. If there was evidence to the contrary, the defence would have used it.

He did a hostile interview with 2 of the other attorneys too. As soon as they start pointing out the realities of the case, as opposed to people's fantasies about it, he cuts them off.
But he will also be known for "Acquit Simpson and send the police a message." That was a CLEAR demand for a jury nullification. And besides, Cochran didn't think up the glove quote, it was Gerald Uelman.
I don't even get the glove, the glove was clearly his - he had a receipt for it and for that size. So who cares if it fit? I wear stuff that don't fit perfectly sometimes.
@@shitlista4283 I think if I were planning a Murder, I would make sure All of my attire was comfy. I don’t think I would have Time for wedgies, tight shoes, or gloves that don’t fit. (The man had Moves to make.)
People think Charlie Rose was a good interviewer. I disagree. He interrupts so many times and that's not being a professional. Never did like his style. He got his at the end of his career and justifiably so.
The victims families did not deserve to pay the price for the ineptitude of the LA City governments inability to clean up their police corruption. RIP Nicole and Ron
@@williebeamen2x Yeah there is no video footage of OJ committing the murders. Short of that there is proof that OJ did commit the murders. If people needed video evidence then most murderers would go free. Whether a guy said "nigger" ten years does not matter and whether some evidence was mishandled does not matter; DNA does not magically point to OJ Simpson from being mishandled; it just comes back as inconclusive.
@@williebeamen2x NO! The JURY failed Ron and Nicole. An idiot could understand OJ was guilty…..so I have not the foggiest idea of what was going through their pea brains.
@mies viela the lapd forensics said under oath not only they didn’t change there gloves while gathering t blood samples. THEY NEVER Did. Not only that but the head of forensics never read the lapds manual on handling blood and dna samples So there is absolutely no reliable dna evidence And a couple specks of blood the size of a pin head. From a guy that slaughtered people up close an absolute blood bath. Which those were founds weeks later. And had the chemical preservative edta just on the blood spot on a sock and not on the entire sock. The gloves. Imagine the absolutely mishandling of so many cases that doesn’t have the funds and resources of the lapd and that’s how they handled crimes and murder. All it took was 10s of millions of dollars in lawyer fees to bring their practices to light.
@@dixiedeed4918 He spent as much time as he possibly could to uplift young people. He did his best to give them a sense of hope and empowerment, and the belief that they Could rise above their circumstances. He gave young lawyers a chance to practice. He even gave one of his young protégés a chance to examine a witness in the OJ case. You could tell she had worked hard on the case; but she was “green,” and a little nervous. It wasn’t a Long examination, but she did a good job. You could see from the look on his face how pleased he was with the job she did. He looked like a proud Father. It boggles the mind why people dislike him for doing a Good Job. John Wayne Gacy, Timothy McVeigh (and others Like them) had attorneys, too. (Oh, but they Lost. What a crime.🙄)
Shapiro lost his son to drugs, Cochrane lost.his battle with cancer, and also Robert Kardashian died prematurely. Okay, so great careers but the murderer was and it is still running free. To me they have all lost and now the bloodshed curse rests on The Kardashians (and that psychopath of a former footballer). I rest my case.
Charlie Ros is a flawless interviewer. Its great to see (even though its quite old) clips in which the interviewer isnt concerned about being a celebrity & constantly interrupting his/her guests. His whole vibe is so positive, calming and classy.
By the way he tried to dominate the conversation, you would think Charlie Rose had more legal experience than Johnnie Cochran🤦🏻♂️ smh. Just let the man talk. We’re here to listen to him, not you Charlie.
wow what a great interview all these years later... Johnnie gone and OJ just died... I didn't know Johnnie was a prosecutor for two years... I was kinda young during the OJ trial but I didn't know OJ took Robert Shapiro off as lead defense and that asshole is recording conversations for a book in the middle of the trial-- I see why OJ picked Johnnie... so many gems in this interview REST IN POWER Johnnie L Cochran
Charlie was enough in his element to get nearly every major player in this case on his show, for in depth interview. CR blatantly plays down his own knowledge of this case, but I suspect there's a good reason so many were happy to talk to him, over Larry King, Oprah etc. Cochrane really struggles to explain the softball questions posed by Lange and Vannatter during that initial interview. He also fails to recognise that Jeffrey Toobin properly researched and fact-checked his seminal account of these events. In fact "The Run of his Life" was clearly the most accurate book on this trial. Even with his dubious covert recording habits, Shapiro couldn't match that epic literary feat. For all the criticisms of Cochrane, he made a sincere effort regardless of circumstances, whereas Shapiro acted so shady throughout. Cochrane is wrong to criticise Toobin - the latter had wider perspective the former can only pretend to. I agree Darden's criticism of the jury was very wrong yet understandable given what he went through. I would take Cochrane's call for moral indignation more seriously, if he hadn't been a hired gun for a rich man who left his racial identity behind, long before he became a nationally known sportsman. Both OJ and Cochrane were very lucky with the timing of this trial, and both shamelessly capitolized on the publicity surrounding - but at the end of the day one man is probably a killer, whilst the other is just a smart lawyer who got grief for simply doing his job well ... Go figure how any of this makes sense!
May Johnnie Cochran rest in peace.Marcia Clark could not even get a non partial jury.The judge ruled in favor of the prosecution 75 percent of the time.
As smart as Cochran was I don’t believe for a minute that he believed O.J. was innocent. Of course he said so in front of the cameras but deep down he knew O.J. did it.
@30:07, Johnnie starts listing facts that Rose can't counter, so of course Rose plays the jury race card. Can't make this up lol. The way Rose is speaking is soo condescending throughout this whole interview. Love how Johnnie is above it all.
Yes but after the trail the jury said there mind were already made up even if there was eye witness they would still vote 2 aqquiet cuz of the rodney king and his celebrity status and they felt he did it but there angry over the system is way they not quilty
Becky & Adam CCGGCC I agree with you completely, I just have a bit more understanding on how he was able to do what he did after listening to him speak here. I still think it was an obvious guilty verdict, but he is a grade A smooth talker and grade A bullshitter
@@hotboy80baby18 the evidence had him dead to rights you fool. The blood of both victims was found on his socks he left back at his house before he left to Chicago. You just have the same IQ as the morons who acquitted him.
He didn't help his community, he was the cause of Prop 209 in California that stipped blacks of some of their rights because they supported OJ and spat on Nicole and Ron. Thats his legacy. You should respect people like Abraham Lincoln, Malcolm X or Martin Luther King, people who REALLY fought for the black community.
In listening to this interview, I feel that Charlie Rose was attempting to show how he would have bested Johnny Cochran in this trial. The problem with that is that, 1. Charlie, you were not presently on the prosecution's team, in the courtroom, 2. Sideline quarter backing never won a game, 3. Never ask a question that you don't know the answer to. Johnny Cochran is a great attorney, and demonstrated how masterfully he dismantled your interview as he did the Prosecution's case of lies in that Courtroom. I, personally, found it quite interesting how Charlie Rose kept trying to get Johnny Cochran to imply that he felt that, at some time during his defense of OJ Simpson, that he (OJ) was guilty. Johnny Cochran stood "10 toes down " on his (OJ) innocence!!!
By Using Rascism..? Avoiding the Truth..? Representing a GUILTY Monster & Helping Him Get Out From PRISON!?!?.Look at the Autopsy Photos of Ron & Nicole & Praise Cochran some more👎
I thought it was a respectful interview, on both participants. I do believe, that police have an incredible amount of power and it should only be given to a select few and have them held accountable.
@@awuahcurtis Simpson? Haha did you hear about the time he was able to stay in Las Vegas ? Karma Simpson was guilty, there's no doubt about that , he was able to beat the charge . I still think he's a vile, psycho POS.

@@shermanmcclesky6882 F off dear, It is not business to make criminals look like victims. This b@stard should take his fight against racism elsewhere. Making a murderer look innocent is not a job. it is helping the murderer, the p!mp is as guilty as the murderer and deserves hell.
I miss Johnnie Cochran. A wise man of color who wanted Justice for other people of color. With these racists cop's like Fhurman. And many, many, of other's who make all cop's look bad. Btw Charlie Rose in this video didn't allow Cochran to get a word in edgewise. My goodness!!!
Johnnie Cochran is an extremely good looking man. Very smart, very interesting to listen to. He is cool, calm & sexy. May he rest in peace. So sad a young, brillant man passed away so young. RIP, may your memory always be remembered.

Would be amazing if the interviewer would let him finish answering a question
Exactly. Charlie Rose was so disrespectful and annoying. Dick Cavett would’ve let him talk.
I agree
Charlie Rose sucks like that. Such a narcissist
He did a hostile interview with 2 of the other attorneys too. As soon as they start pointing out the realities of the case, as opposed to people's fantasies about it, he cuts them off.
sounds fantastic
If you close your eyes, you can hear Bob Ross talking. Still waiting for him to say "Happy little trees or accidents"
Was looking for this comment. So true. Must be from the same region or same accent or something!
The reporter or Johnny ?@@OhManTFE
He will forever be known as, “If the glove don’t fit, then you must acquit!”
And wearing that sock hat. That was too funny.
He is not brilliant.Not a single person buys his bullshit.He just got a black jury that is jealous of and hates white people.Simple as that.
But he will also be known for "Acquit Simpson and send the police a message." That was a CLEAR demand for a jury nullification.
And besides, Cochran didn't think up the glove quote, it was Gerald Uelman.
I don't even get the glove, the glove was clearly his - he had a receipt for it and for that size. So who cares if it fit? I wear stuff that don't fit perfectly sometimes.

People think Charlie Rose was a good interviewer. I disagree. He interrupts so many times and that's not being a professional. Never did like his style. He got his at the end of his career and justifiably so.

@@williebeamen2x Yeah there is no video footage of OJ committing the murders. Short of that there is proof that OJ did commit the murders. If people needed video evidence then most murderers would go free. Whether a guy said "nigger" ten years does not matter and whether some evidence was mishandled does not matter; DNA does not magically point to OJ Simpson from being mishandled; it just comes back as inconclusive.
@@williebeamen2x NO! The JURY failed Ron and Nicole. An idiot could understand OJ was guilty…..so I have not the foggiest idea of what was going through their pea brains.
@@pommiebears FALSE :(
@mies viela the lapd forensics said under oath not only they didn’t change there gloves while gathering t blood samples. THEY NEVER Did.
Not only that but the head of forensics never read the lapds manual on handling blood and dna samples
So there is absolutely no reliable dna evidence
And a couple specks of blood the size of a pin head. From a guy that slaughtered people up close an absolute blood bath.
Which those were founds weeks later. And had the chemical preservative edta just on the blood spot on a sock and not on the entire sock.
The gloves.
Imagine the absolutely mishandling of so many cases that doesn’t have the funds and resources of the lapd and that’s how they handled crimes and murder.
All it took was 10s of millions of dollars in lawyer fees to bring their practices to light.
Master Class in interviewing.

@@dixiedeed4918 he was a great lawyer and did his job well and it would've been nice to have had is thoughts on the legal issues of today.
@@dixiedeed4918 He spent as much time as he possibly could to uplift young people. He did his best to give them a sense of hope and empowerment, and the belief that they Could rise above their circumstances.
He gave young lawyers a chance to practice. He even gave one of his young protégés a chance to examine a witness in the OJ case. You could tell she had worked hard on the case; but she was “green,”
and a little nervous. It wasn’t a Long examination, but she did a good job. You could see from the look on his face how pleased he was with the job she did. He looked like a proud Father.
It boggles the mind why people dislike him for doing a Good Job.
John Wayne Gacy, Timothy McVeigh (and others Like them) had attorneys, too. (Oh, but they Lost. What a crime.🙄)
I wish they would do a movie about his life.
👌🏼
Shapiro lost his son to drugs, Cochrane lost.his battle with cancer, and also Robert Kardashian died prematurely. Okay, so great careers but the murderer was and it is still running free. To me they have all lost and now the bloodshed curse rests on The Kardashians (and that psychopath of a former footballer). I rest my case.
And Detective Vannnater died of heat attack in 20012..,so what
No one dies “prematurely”. Everyone dies in the order our Creator ordains.
We lost a great one rest in heaven my brother
Charlie Ros is a flawless interviewer. Its great to see (even though its quite old) clips in which the interviewer isnt concerned about being a celebrity & constantly interrupting his/her guests. His whole vibe is so positive, calming and classy.
?
Rip to the greatest attorney ever 🙏
By the way he tried to dominate the conversation, you would think Charlie Rose had more legal experience than Johnnie Cochran🤦🏻♂️ smh. Just let the man talk. We’re here to listen to him, not you Charlie.
It was horrific, shut Rose up, let your guest speak
If the good cop doesn't say anything then he's a bad cop too.

@@my.0224 👊😃
wow what a great interview all these years later... Johnnie gone and OJ just died... I didn't know Johnnie was a prosecutor for two years... I was kinda young during the OJ trial but I didn't know OJ took Robert Shapiro off as lead defense and that asshole is recording conversations for a book in the middle of the trial-- I see why OJ picked Johnnie... so many gems in this interview
REST IN POWER Johnnie L Cochran
CHARLIE ROSE IS CLEARLY OUT OF HIS ELEMENT MOST OF HIS CROSS EXAMINATIO POINT ARE SO TRIVIAL AND CLEARLY UNINFORMED AND MEDIA LED QUESTIONS...
Charlie was enough in his element to get nearly every major player in this case on his show, for in depth interview. CR blatantly plays down his own knowledge of this case, but I suspect there's a good reason so many were happy to talk to him, over Larry King, Oprah etc. Cochrane really struggles to explain the softball questions posed by Lange and Vannatter during that initial interview. He also fails to recognise that Jeffrey Toobin properly researched and fact-checked his seminal account of these events. In fact "The Run of his Life" was clearly the most accurate book on this trial. Even with his dubious covert recording habits, Shapiro couldn't match that epic literary feat. For all the criticisms of Cochrane, he made a sincere effort regardless of circumstances, whereas Shapiro acted so shady throughout. Cochrane is wrong to criticise Toobin - the latter had wider perspective the former can only pretend to. I agree Darden's criticism of the jury was very wrong yet understandable given what he went through. I would take Cochrane's call for moral indignation more seriously, if he hadn't been a hired gun for a rich man who left his racial identity behind, long before he became a nationally known sportsman. Both OJ and Cochrane were very lucky with the timing of this trial, and both shamelessly capitolized on the publicity surrounding - but at the end of the day one man is probably a killer, whilst the other is just a smart lawyer who got grief for simply doing his job well ... Go figure how any of this makes sense!
May Johnnie Cochran rest in peace.Marcia Clark could not even get a non partial jury.The judge ruled in favor of the prosecution 75 percent of the time.
Eddie all lie's.
@@philipwilliams1754 ,well O.J.Simpson was found innocent by a female jury.Johnie Cochran is dead.Be satisfied.

As smart as Cochran was I don’t believe for a minute that he believed O.J. was innocent. Of course he said so in front of the cameras but deep down he knew O.J. did it.
that's why both of them deserve the hell! Son of bitchezzzz
Absolute class act, carries himself with dignity and I like the way he goes about his business.
@CINEKYD MEDIA ARCHIVE and you are privy to such knowledge by close association or imaginations born of personal bias?

@CINEKYD MEDIA ARCHIVE Cochran was defending his client. Doing his job does not make him indecent.
@CINEKYD MEDIA ARCHIVE I can tell the same for you friend. :)
@30:07, Johnnie starts listing facts that Rose can't counter, so of course Rose plays the jury race card. Can't make this up lol. The way Rose is speaking is soo condescending throughout this whole interview. Love how Johnnie is above it all.

RIP JC. A great man who helped his community. This is the kind of attorney I want to be like.
He didn't help his community, he was the cause of Prop 209 in California that stipped blacks of some of their rights because they supported OJ and spat on Nicole and Ron. Thats his legacy. You should respect people like Abraham Lincoln, Malcolm X or Martin Luther King, people who REALLY fought for the black community.
In listening to this interview, I feel that Charlie Rose was attempting to show how he would have bested Johnny Cochran in this trial. The problem with that is that, 1. Charlie, you were not presently on the prosecution's team, in the courtroom, 2. Sideline quarter backing never won a game, 3. Never ask a question that you don't know the answer to. Johnny Cochran is a great attorney, and demonstrated how masterfully he dismantled your interview as he did the Prosecution's case of lies in that Courtroom. I, personally, found it quite interesting how Charlie Rose kept trying to get Johnny Cochran to imply that he felt that, at some time during his defense of OJ Simpson, that he (OJ) was guilty. Johnny Cochran stood "10 toes down " on his (OJ) innocence!!!
the best lawyer yessir
He didn't do it.
