News Corp.'s (NYSE:NWS) cancellation of both the publication of O.J. Simpson's If I Did It book and the related Fox TV special was a victory for common sense -- even if it took a universal outcry to prod chairman Rupert Murdoch into the decision. Also interesting to us are some stories floating around the Internet that the act of pulling O.J.'s book off the shelves might put a dent in holiday book sales.

Leaving aside the issue of the appropriateness of this book as a gift ("Nothing says 'Merry Christmas' like O.J. talking murder!"), we at The Motley Fool have several ideas for replacement material to fill those empty shelves at Borders (NYSE:BGP), Barnes & Noble (NYSE:BKS), and Amazon.com (NASDAQ:AMZN).
