I posted this on Facebook and received five comments within 34 minutes. I think I'm on to something.
Okay, so Michael Jackson was a brilliant performer, and his death was sad, but I'm not spending my time thinking about him, leaving comments all around the Internet, or watching a lot of his videos on YouTube. I didn't even watch his memorial and I'm okay with that. Nor did I become a fan of his Facebook page (he's got close to 7.5 million fans there, he doesn't need mine). Does this make me a bad person?

Stumble It!
It would be interesting to read those 5 comments you received on facebook.
People are so passionate about MJ. Since when is Falsetto great singing?
to slide into your following post, I was
disappointed in Obama for weighing in on Jackson's death by saying he has his music on his ipod. Would have been a great opportunity to say "Hey, 4 young men UNDER the age of 50 died today in Afghanistan for all of us".
That Senator Peter King is probably a kook, I don't know, but for once, Someone got it right.

With all due respect for the dead - I have never read of anyone denying the man paid 20 million (some say 22) dollars to quiet an underage lad that accused MJ of molestation. NO ONE, no matter how rich, pays that kind of dough while being innocent - just to get rid of an issue.
It seems the main reason he was not found guilty in the court case was that boy and his family 'sacrificed' the boy to make a financial score - that didn't work.
Bottom line the man was a child molester with a modicum of talent. I had better things to do than watch any of the show(s).
