Person that likes the fog, pablo, he was on twitter last night. The form former third base man for the giants, expected to sign a new deal. So he is signing . Do you agree with this . I do think that maybe its a mental thing, he was part of a successful giants team. He has a bunch of rings, he played really well. The best that i have ever seen a guy play, its not that long ago, three years ago. What do you think, as a fan, do you embrace this . Its a name we know, it will bring people to the ballpark. San francisco is not taking a money risk. Thats important to me. We have a busy thursday morning. We are going to begin in the state of nevada, oj simpsons parole hearing is getting underway in about an hour, ken is joining us live from carson city to set the picture. Reporter well, heres what is happening right knew. You can see over my shoulder, some sheriffs deputies keepings the public out from this area from the building in carson city where the hearing will taking place at 10 00, we should have a decision before noon on whether or not oj simpson is going to be released. I wanted to show you the monitors here. They are going to show us, one, the parole commissioners talking and deliberating, and questioning oj simpson and the other monitor is a live feed from lovelock prison where oj simpson will be sitting at a table talking on the camera, thats the set up here, we have 30 media organizations here in carson city, there are another 30 media organizations out in lovelock nevada, oj simpson will be sitting down at 10 00 along with his supporters making their case that oj simpson is ready to be released from prison and that he should be. Ken, i know you are in the media area, are there people looking to see where you are . Reporter we have had a few people coming by, we are in a business park, there are a few office buildings, we are setback 100 yards from the street so you have to come to the parking areas to get to this building. We have had more employees from the nearby businesses coming by and also people from the parole commission, gerald 0 geraldo was here and some of the people that work at the prison were taking pictures with him. There are no protestors here. I do not want to give away our age but you and i were both working at ktvu fox news in 1994, i remember the huge media spectacle. You were coverings it live, is this anything like what you saw then . Reporter no, this is a big Media Presence but back then in los angeles, it was a different media situation, talking about age, see the woman over there in the blue and white dress, shes 23 years old, she was not even born when the trial was taking place, so sal, you and i are old. Ken, i might be a year or two p behind you guys, but i remember where i was when the bronco chase was happening, i remember, its still in the national consciousness. Yes. Reporter also to talk about that sense of history, of what this is all about, if i go back, sal, i remember, as a child when oj simpson played for usc. I remember when he won the heisman trophy, he was a big star in San Francisco. City college, he grew up in the city, he was such a big name in the late 60s, a tremendous running back with the Buffalo Bills then he came to San Francisco and joined the 49ers then the hertz commercials and he was in the movies, he had a magnetic presence, everyone loved oj simpson, i cannot remember anything ever saying anything negative about oj simpson his whole career, until the murders. Until that happened in los angeles, that is why it was such a big deal. He was so beloved in this country, when that happened, everything turned upside down, now he is 70 years old. We do not know what he will look like, there are no pictures of him for a while. We hear that his knees are not that great. He may be heavier, thats going to be the most striking thing, what he looks like, he would look different than the last time we saw him. He is a 70 year old man saying, i have done my time, i should be set free, i am not going to do anything like that again, the parole board is going to take that into consideration. The legal analysts are saying he should be released. It could happen on october 1, we have to hear what he has to say, if anyone has to say anything on why he stays behind bars, we will hear that, this is a conviction for a robbery, this is not supposed to o have anything to do with the murder trial. He was acquitted of those charges, this is a separate issue, there is still a civil case, he owes 33 million to the family of ron goldman, nobody believes he will be able to pay that back. You talk about the 60s and 70s, americans welcomed him into their house on tv with open arms, now there is an National Obsession with him since the trial. Do you think that if he is released or if he in the spotlight, do you think that curiosity gets renewed again . Reporter thats an open question, there is a lot oj simpson burn out. We have been through so much and its dominated the headlines for so many years, this could be, people hope, the final chapter, if he is released people hope le fade out into the sunset and we will not hear about him again but it depends how much of an appet irgs te there is for the details appetite there is for the details, like if he guess out, who will he date. What golf clubs allow him to be a member. There is a lot of people that disagree with the verdict in los angeles and are going to blame him forever, its up to him what happens if he gets released. Will he keep a low profile and stay out of everyones business and maybe golf and live a quiet life with members of his family and friends or will he go to the clubs, who knows, we will wait to see what happens, the amount of oj simpson news is going to depend on oj simpson, if he does things that attract attention, we will see how it plays out. Thank you, ken. We will wait and see, that decision will come in 20 minutes after the hearing comes to an end. There is no sign of oj simpson fatigue on twitter. My question was, its expected that he will be released. We are asking, do you think he will lead a private life or go back to being in the spotlight. 47 say private life. 53 say back in the spotlight. Keep it here on ktvu fox news for complete coverage of the hearing, we have special coverage starting an 10 00 and we bring the decision live. We dug into the ar kiefsz to archives to find details and we have more later. Allie rasmus is in berkeley to spain what the Uc Berkeley College republicans are upset about. Reporter universal officials denied the request to have ben shapiro come to the college. He wanted to come speak to the students but the University Said they do not have a venue to accommodate the crowds. He is a commenter with breitbart and he has a radio show where he weighs in on a thumb of topics. The university met with College Republicans to find another place to host ben shapiro but the republicans are saying, this is just another way for the university to prevent another controversial speaker from appearing on the campus. I do not know where he is appearing but the university should give him a chance, but we have seen this before, its not always as productive as you hope it is. Its berkeley, you should be able to do what you want, but we have to keep the students safe. Reporter in february, riots broke out when Milo Yiannopoulos came to the campus, his speech was called off at the last minute because of the violence, after that an Ann N Coulter canceled her speech at the campus because of safety concerns. A man that recently graduated said this is part of a pattern among university officials. Here we go again, we are going to stop people from speaking and bringing divorce fied diversified political voices. Reporter now in light of some of the controversy with the political speakers, the university is in the process of creating a policy for all of the student groups that want to bring speakers to the campus, they have to give the university eight weeks notice before they invite people to speak and also if there are safety concerns, the committees have to meet with the Uc Berkeley Police prior to the event. Its been six weeks since President Donald Trump took office, we look at the job he has done and the challenges he is facing. Plus the latest on the cancer diagnoses for Jonathan Mcleod we have more coming up on ktvu news right after the break from the first moment you met it was love at first touch and all you wanted to do was surround them in comfort and protection thats why only pampers swaddlers is the 1 choice of hospitals to wrap your baby in blanketlike softness and premium protection mom oh hi baby so all they feel is love wishing you love, sleep and play. Pampers. Welcome back to ktvu news, all of the news, weather and information you need to know throughout your day. We are continuing to follow the news that arizona senator john mccain was dagged with brawng cancer diagnosed with brain cancer, drtion made the diagnoses while removing a blood clot over the senators eye. God knows how this ends, not me, but this disease has never had a more worthy opponent. His family is currently reviewing Treatment Options including radiation and chemotherapy. President donald trump said nor john mccain has always been a feuter. We send our thoughts and prayers to the whole family. Get well soon. President obama tweeted, john mccain is an American Hero and one of the bravest fighters i have ever known, cancer does not know what its up against, give it hell, john. The senator tweeted, i appreciate the out pouring of support, i will be back soon, stand by. Its been six months since President Donald Trump took over the white house, we have our senior Political Writer for the San Francisco chronicle. He promised a border wall, he promised to repeal and replace obamacare, he called himself the ultimate deal maker, has any of this happened . No. Nothing. But there are some things he can do to get outof the box, number one, get out of the house, the president was very good when he was on the road, campaigning, going to rallies, he has done five of those but he has gone to states where he already won, go to bli states. Another one, get off the golf course, he has played on his own golf courses 40 times, go out and see americans. Is that because it looks bad. Could he say that there is deal making happening, or is it the perception problem. Its the perception but also, he ran as a poop populist, he should be that. Some people said, as soon as he gets into the oval oofs, we are going to see President Donald Trump doing great. His tweets may not be as mean spirited as before but he has gotten no democratic support, he came into office as a builder, that was his profession, so if he went for the Infrastructure Program early, that would have gotten bipartisan support and he would have something to show for what he did, we are starting to build the roads. That would have also made a better relationship with congress, he could have then gone on to tax reform. He might have peeled off a couple of democrats for that. But as of now, he has no healthcare reform, a day one promise, and no legislation. Does this matter to President Donald Trumps supporters, they are sticking with him no matter what. The polls are solid for him in Trump Country but his message is not resonating with them for healthcare, he did nothing to support the healthcare reform act. In the counties that supported him, support for the healthcare reform was low. Lets talk about what is happening in washington, do you foresee Jeff Sessions staying as attorney general for long. When your boss says, i should not have hired you, what can you say, you have to figure he is a lame duck, then who does he go to . Does he pick another republican from the senate. Why take that job when you know you are going to be undercut by your boss for doing the right thing, he did the right thing by recusing himself and he got his knees cut from under him. He did appoint a Supreme Court justice. If he left a conservative legacy, would would it be appointing another justice. Absolutely, thats why the base loves him. Going back to your question, they continually point to the knee gore gore appointment. Gorsuch appointment. But lets face it, these people are all in their 70s and 80s, he could have a chance to appoint another justice. Is this the case where the president might take his own advise, he he said that the republicans are not doing enough of a good job of selling the health plan, has he done a good job selling himself. No, he gives conflicting messages, repeal, replace, let obamacare fail. They are conflicting messages, how can they have a path forward when he is giving them five paths forward. A while back, president clinton was called the teflon president , now President Donald Trump is being seen as that, he does something negative and his supporters will support him. They will support him. They have not been hurt financially, in a year if things get worse, healthcare or income, we will see slippage among those people but his overall Approval Rating is 35 , the lowest of any president at this point in his tenure. You should read joe, he wrote, President Donald Trump has been in the white house for six months and he has torched the most precious things a new president guess, his honeymoon. Thank you joe.
