I watched them explaining why to Oprah today

Did the Goldmans say on Oprah that they're only getting seventeen cents per book? That's what I read online. If so, where are the rest of the profits going?

To coin a phrase: LOL! Yes! They repeated and repeated and repeated that they get SEVENTEEN CENTS A BOOK. Oprah was shocked and said something like that is an awful book deal. Then (I hope I got this right) when Oprah asked where the rest of the money goes Kim Goldman said some would go to the Ronald Goldman Foundation but did not say what that foundation does. There was something else I cannot remember right now. Marcia Clark and Christopher Darden were there and they didn’t get the book thing either. In the end I felt the Goldmans pulled out the last stop and very emotionally said if just ONE woman reads the book and recognizes her plight and escapes her abuser and her life is saved it will all be worth it. Oprah looked into the camera like yes, but you could tell she still didn’t understand. Marcia Clark said she lives with guilt for failing to bring justice for the families and Christopher Darden who Oprah says is “shattered”, said he copes by trying to forget it. A woman in the audience said she dropped out of law school the day the verdict was announced.
