Another attempt at parody based on P.G. Wodehouse:
TheAmericanErewhon-ist: "Plans to release a controversial book by celebrity manservant Jeeves have been scrapped by the book's publisher. The book, 'Might I Hasten To Suggest, Sir, That You Dispose Of Your Aunt Agatha In The Following Manner' has drawn a great deal of criticism from media outlets such 'Milady's Boudoir' and 'Newt Fancier's Weekly.' When reached for comment, a Jeeves spokesgentleman said 'I say. Dash it all. What did that old Macbeth chappie say about dagger handles pointing at hands and all that?'

... You know, even such an absurd notion as even the merest hint of something as ghastly as a death occurring within the pages of a P.G. Wodehouse novel pale in comparison to the idea of O. J Simpson's preposterously tasteless and ghoulish book about how he would have committed those famous murders. Surely this is currently the lowest of an apparently bottomless series of low points in the emotional plague-ridden world of celebrity culture."
