Dopo if you were wondering about how many service men and women lives were taken yesterday then why don't you know the numbers and their names? You are wondering now about the service people because MJ's death is being covered? You guys have a problem. If you care so much about the service men and women enlist, or go visit a base, or visit a hospital where they are at. The best news is online and or in the news paper itself why would you want to watch magazine news stations. Give me a break. You guys don't like Michael Jackson OK WE ALL HERE YOU! Move on and write about people you do care for. Why spend so much time being negative? MOVE ON!

Guess WTF they are talking about? Michael Jackson.

I thought right wing radio was opposed to coverage about celebrities.
Why does right wing radio keep on talking about Michael Jackson?
Or is this another proof that all the media is right wing (All of them are talking about the same thing = Michael Jackson)
Maybe it's just me ... but I'm having a hard time looking at the phrase "WTF" with sections of the Bible immediately above it?

If MJ is such a bad person, criminal, the worst in our society, etc.... Then they shouldn't help make him a martyr by keeping on talking about him.

Right wing radio is doing exactly what they always criticize everybody else about.
Going for whatever is popular and makes money
instead of what it's "conservative"
What is "conservative" Dopo?

They talk about MJ because they have nothing else to talk about. They don't know a thing about running a sound economy. Not a clue. They don't know how to pick qualified leaders as evidenced by support of the village idiot. Name any domestic issue, and they either take the inferior position or have not been able to come up with any answers to solve the problems that plague this nation. They deal with the unknown and unfamiliar as if it is a black box. Try a solution and see what comes out. To hell with the inner workings. They are too clueless and confined to extend themselves.

So, without a clue on how to approach, solve, or even offer effective, sound solutions to the problems they created, all they can do is be shallow and latch themselves on to the headline of the day. As usual, they take the position with the black box approach, with no clue. Holds the attention of podunk I suppose.

They talk about it because they question why the Dems are constantly talking about it to cover up their lack of competance dealing with a busted economy. The ghetto idiot (also known as Obama) is doing nothing to turn this country around and all the bedwetters can do is mask this incompetance with constant coverage of Jackson. The right media is just questioning the relevence of this

Nice to see that you love MJ, but hate the military members?
It's HEAR, not HERE.
How old are you?

I listened to Laura Ingraham and she did have soem comments about it. Mostly it was confined to criticizing the celebrity whores who just had to be seen at the memorial service. But she also had some comments about Al Sharpton's rather mean spirited grandstanding. Her point, it was made into a spectacle and gave Jackson less respect than it could have. The only deep emotion I really saw was from his kids.
