ALERT: Michael Jackson Memorial Snark on Wonkette

[bertman]

for those of us who thought the dude was an incredible entertainer and dancer, who loved Thriller, and who wondered how he got so fucked up.

RIP Michael.

But seriously, this media adulation is beyond ridiculous.

[Old and In the Way]

1. He sold a lot of records.

None to me, though. To be charitable, I wasn't into the MJ sound.

2. And he trancended racial boundaries to sell massive records and be loved world wide. n/t

[bertman]

3. In retrospect, maybe the Thriller album was his premonition of what was going to happen to him

as he became more famous. A hideous monster going after innocent young people.

[vaberella]

4. Jesus. None of that was proved and until there is proof Im not about to entertain that. n/t

5. and OJ wasn't guilty, either.

6. That's your corresponding evidence. I'm bloody happy people like you guys are not

judge, jury and executioner because I'd never be innocent until proven guilty---you'd send people to the electric chair without a fair trial. Disgusting.

7. In the good ole U.S. of A. multi-millionaire celebrities are almost never convicted

of anything, no matter what the evidence might show.
