Tempo 8 Section 5 Chicago Tribune, Wednesday, June 18, 1997 Wednesday night6 p.m.-3 a.m. indicates closed-captioned programming. Channel surfing By Allan Johnson Tribune Staff Writer "American Justice: Why OJ. Lost: The Civil Admittedly, there are a few dozen people around the country who had no emotional investment in the J. Simpson murder trial and its subsequent civil lawsuit phase.

So for those who have finally decided to get a taste of what the fuss has been all about, here's an "American Justice" episode I OJ. Simpson devoted to the civil case. Airing on at 8 p.m. and hosted by Chicago's Bill Kurtis, "Why O.J. Lost" is a follow-up to the series' "Why O.J.

Won" show, which wrapped up Simpson's criminal trial This episode will show viewers the legal process that resulted in Simpson being ordered to fork over $33.5 million to the estates of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman, as the penalty for being found liable for their deaths. Lawyers, jurors and family members give their insights as to what was going on during the case, which took a turn Monday when it was reported by a Los Angeles television station that Simpson's Heisman trophy, which he said he hadn't 'seen since January or February, had turned up and was to go to his ex-wife's estate as part of satisfying the civil penalty.
