dekker - I like #15 in the 4th link down in your list:
15. ART IMITATES FICTION: I cannot let this end without one trivial observation: the Fox show began with footage from a conspiracy movie from 1978 in which the astronauts are asked to fake a landing on the moon because NASA realized they could never pull it off and if they didn't their budget would be cut, etc., The film was entitled Capricorn One, and the astronauts refused to cooperate so NASA tried to have them killed. But I noticed that Fox was most discrete in not showing the actors playing the astronauts: one of them was O.J. Simpson who, in the film just like on the football field and in Brentwood, showed his amazing ability to cut and run . . . .
