"The News Hour" on PBS get's it right...MJ "memorial" takes the back seat!

i also couldnt care less about obama's trip to russia. just politicians wasting air.

im not saying i care about mj, i absolutely dont. i guess its a slow news time since we all already know the economy is ruined for a long time. not much else worth caring about. maybe if people pay attention to MJ, obama can slip through another stimulus because apparently he didnt get to payback all his donors with the previous one.

Wow! Did you actually listen in civics or geography class? How bout world history?

I do hope you get to experience the same disrespect you've displayed.

Sorry, but that is how it is. When you are elevated to a diety status by the media, the people on the street are needed to bring you back down.

You need to bring down a dead guy?
For what, exactly?

I liked MJ back in the day. I have the LP of BAD in my collection. He was fun to watch and had good music. But, in my opinion, no entertainer deserves what he got yesterday. Yes, he was somewhat of a philanthropist. Yes, he was always polite and gracious in interviews. Yes, he always gave 100% on stage. So what!!! I can name 100 other music acts, actors/actresses, and pro athletes that that do the same thing!

What he got?
Jealous of the attention a dead entertainer receives?

And nobody today compares to MJ's popularity at its height.
You can try to compare 100's to him, but its a silly comparison.

They just had the ceremony, and hopefully the news and political shows will go back to discussing news.
