Yes, a full seven out of the 21 top stories on the CNN main page were devoted to Michael Jackson. Look, I know the man was a popular musician; possibly the most popular musician of my generation. His death was sudden and unexpected, certainly, but it was not a tragic illness nor freak accident. With wars still being fought on two fronts, the US economy in free-fall despite throwing
Let. It. Go. Let the man be dead. Let us go on with our lives, such as they are...

Jay,
Damned good of you to give us even MORE coverage of MJ. We needed that.
AWM
Well, you know, just in case you missed it...
I know it's just been a blurb in the news these days...
And what the hell does Al Sharpton have to do with MJ? Jermaine, Tito, Janet, Al, LaToya... nope, that's not right.
I'll keep looking into it (I won't keep looking into it).
Make that "popular entertainer." I for one never considered what he produced to be worthy of the name "music." So he's dead. So what? Doesn't bother me none.
THIRTEEN people have died in Afghanistan since MJ died in Hollyweird. Thirteen. Thirteen sons, husband, fathers. Thirteen men who did something USEFUL with their lives.
F* Michael Jackson, and f* the pissants covering him like he was Christ. Oh, and a double-hard f* for whomever decided that his poor daughter crying while she talked about Daddy needed to be played for the world again and again and again. Leave the man's children alone!
I was not at all into his music so it seemed to me to be a lot of coverage for a dead pedophile.
Swooning over a serial skin bleaching, rich pedophile........
That clown was prime freakshow fodder.
I only regret that his death did not happen earlier.
