Strategic Tabloid Slaughter of Michael Jackson

hesouttamylife · January 2012

Let’s re-examine for about an hour or so just how determined the tabloid media was to kill Michael’s character during the sex abuse scandals. All the players and the games they master by manipulation of truth. Taken from MJTruthNow forum - vindicate Michael Jackson.

Thanks for the link! Watched the first minutes of that video, watch more when I have more time. The whole site looks interesting.

It's just not Michael Jackson who's exploited. What people need to understand is that the media is bought & paid for by the elite scum bags running this country. With all information that they want misunderstood you'll see it in your local newspapers, tabaloid trash magazines, etc... There's agenda behind giving you lies. With the Michael Jackson sexual abuse cases, you really have to start to dig at the source of who's IS GOING TO GAIN THE MOST???? It's just like government.... follow the paper trail of corruptness. If it's the DA, Sneddon, which is was involved in Michaels' cases, who's behind him? What motives do they have to silence Michael? Was it because Michael could see the corruptness of our system, going into tyranny? Did they think because of his status as an entertainer he would be heard? We also have to real about how Michael also portrayed himself, by himself. He also was a DIVA IN HIS OWN WORLD ALSO. He also planted alot of goofy tales himself, just to see if the Tabaloids picked up on it. Some of his practical jokes, backfired on him, & because American's in human nature believe everything in Hollywood glitz, that's there's no way the National Equirer could be lying or they could be sued. No, they are fed information........of course bad is usually the GOOD!! But with every slander, or just utter LIES you have to ask yourself.................Who is to gain by this???? It will always lead to ......POWER, MONEY & CONTROL....... but who's going to stand up & expose this without feeling a retaliation coming in return.

However, this thread IS about the media and Michael Jackson's story; and this piece capitalizes on just what lengths they were willing to go to GET HIM.

Tink · January 2012

Rupert Murdock is who got pissed off at Michael, owned many of the Tabloids, and British papers. Remember, Lingos stick into people's heads. The research I did on Tom Sneddon, is that his Publicist IS the one who came up with "Wh***o J***o." Jingles from the '50s to '80s were especially catchy. Meow Mix one was my favorite, over the McDonald's hamburger song, though I recall both fondly. And I hate hamburgers! lolol/ Those two examples to me, are harmless, silly, and the products fairly cheap, so who cares. But when you apply that principal to someone's reputation, the results are devastating! I've read all the court transcripts. This is why I'm here - I don't need to dig any further. "The Truth Will Out." And has. Michael was persecuted simply because he was a black man - and if anyone else under normal circumstances was scrutinized, then nothing would've happened. This was Justice in it's darkest night - and the media LIED, just presenting the Prosecutions side, rushing outside, before showing the light of the Defense! I didn't blame Jermaine for trying to get Michael out of the country - but the truth was on his side.

LoveShyMichael · January 2012

Adding insult to injury, on top would be "hey lets say it was sexual", or yea that's going to ruin someone's career, that's a guarantee someone's going to be hurt on this one. Sneddon HATED, & that's a strong word, but he had it out for him. C'mon if Sneddon could get a conviction, he was going to be the DA who put Michael Jackson away!!!! No doubt..that was his agenda....

hesouttamylife · January 2012

/bravo/ @Tink because you are so right. All of this was perpetuated and driven because certain people in high places did not like the fact that Michael was a black man, whom they considered uneducated in the traditional sense, and weird, yet who had the power to win the hearts of their daughters and sons, had ammassed a fortune, and could walk and talk and eat and entertain any and every class of man from the greatest of dignitaries to those they considered the grunge of the earth, at the same table and make no differences between them. He had everything they never could and never would; respect, class, dignity, compassion, humility, power and love from every corner of the universe, and they simply couldn’t stomach it. “How dare he” ! And obviously they were so humiliated and envious of Michael’s standing in the world that they set out to do everything in their power to change it. Scumbags & hate mongers. Envy, hate and ignorance, the bottom line.

Remember, he dared to plant Neverland into an all white settlement, basically - though forgetting it's Indian land, the foolish Sneddon and crew! They're no better than the thugs in the projects, you realize that!? I remember how it used to be - and it still is, under the surface! Look at the deep South, and how they tried to stop that one couple from marrying, it was dreadful! Then on CNN, that one dude did a special on eating Thanksgiving with White peeps. My jaw hit the floor, I thought this shit was over and done with! No...as long as people teach it to their children, it's still there. That's why if you DO NOT teach kids to hate, nor fear, they won't! And still in Santa Barbara, you're welcome to visit - just don't be the wrong color after dark! rr/

Thanks for the link. Definitely saving this one. To those that mention how certain people tried to destroy MJ because he had it all and had the audacity to be Black. MJ was saying the same things in his speech in New York with Jesse Jackson and others. Michael is a very smart man. He knew.

LoveShyMichael · January 2012

I totally agree on the "black race" issue in our society today. I'm currently dating a black man (I'm white) & he's very educated. Because he's from England, & most associate English men being white. When he moved here in Wisconsin, he started a very good job, & all the employees we're told that his name is Chris & he's from England. Some of the top big wigs for the company told him that there was some employees that we're fond of "black people" being successful. Chris had brought to the meeting 2 glasses of water half full. He introduced himself, & asked "him team" if anyone knew why he would have the 2 glasses of water? No one responded, because they we're taken back because he was black, & they thought they we're getting a white guy for their new boss. Back to the 2 glasses of water, Chris asked if he cut himself & dripped his blood in the glass of water it would be the same as the "white" people that we're all in the meeting. We all bleed the same color. So the outside skin color doesn't change the color of the blood. It's the concept of closed minds that "see color".

Thank you for sharing your story! It's sad the human RACE (one human race) is so conditioned to think about different skin colors instead of looking at what is in the person's heart.

I remember a Chris Rock stand up comedy......he says....."There is not a single person in this audience that would trade spots with me, because I'm black.............and I'm RICH!!!......."

Joe and Katherine's interview in 2005 about MJ's trial. If you want to skip the first video, this is the best part where they say it was about racism and more, but can’t say. They are funny and cute too. Good story LoveShyMichael! Yes I believe racism is still alive and well, but more subtle. [size=small]Just on the theme of racism, in Canadian hockey (I don't follow at all) last fall there was an incident of racism towards a black player (there's very few), where someone threw a banana on the ice. It was a big thing in the press, but no one would ever actually say the R word, only that it was offensive etc. No one actually said that bananas mean monkeys and monkeys mean blacks are further down the evolutionary scale, but EVERYONE, it's assumed knew full well what was meant. So it's silent racism. I'm sure Michael dealt with that ALL the time.[/size] 2 comments:

I'm sorry but you have no idea what they're capable of, they're not the friendly smiling middle-class African American types you'd see on ''The Cosby Show'' oh no, they are wild animals and they would gladly murder you for your wallet or ''nice watch''. Don't be naive.

Bless his wisdom! It kills me that in this country, people are picky about the color of whom they date, than the color of their dog! If I had a choice between any black man or a white man? I'd Pick Chris Rock any day of the week - because a sense of humor is #1 in my book - that goes beyond any skin color. That's why my parents met!

Yes, SILENT PREJUDISM. Symbols hurt, as much as the N word, or the J****bo* word, etc. White people have picked on Bill Cosby, because he refuses to take off on his private plane, unless all the qualified black people are given first choice. He's been known to hold up his own plane for take off at the Santa Monica airport, over this. I don't see what the issue is, he takes us Biracials too, sheesh!

LoveShyMichael · January 2012

It's not just Michael Jackson who had to deal with the "race card" issue. Every black man on this earth has had to deal with racism on some level. I guess because I'm white, it doesn't seem to affect "us white people" as much. But because I've dated all races, I do know that each man had to deal with his own "race" issues with all different races. Not just the white man.

everlastinglove_MJ · January 2012

Thanks for the link /> Before I watched the vid I read MJ's words on this site and they say much about the power of the biased tabloids but also about the ignorance of the readers:

Why not just tell people I’m an alien from Mars? Tell them I eat live chickens and do a voodoo dance at midnight. They’ll believe anything you say, because you’re a reporter. But if I, Michael Jackson, were to say, “I’m an alien from Mars, and I eat live chickens and do a voodoo dance at midnight,” people would say, “Oh, man, that Michael Jackson is nuts. You can’t believe a damn word that comes out of his mouth.” ~Michael Jackson

which brings me to Tom Mesereau's speech about how journalism becomes medialoid: "Media tries to analyse differently, how do we create drama, how do we keep shows in the air blabla. So evidence is judged very very differently by the media because they have different goals: drama, sensation => RATINGS."

respect/ to Tom. L.O.V.E. always

@MaryK: didn't know about the twitter, but I can imagine that it is a touching movie with a great story about pilots who helped start the Civil Rights Movement, they're heroes. It took 23 years to get the movie released! Kudos to George Lucas indeed.

Seems like USA has always had a problem in that matter. At the end it does not matter the color of your skin. Look at Obama, being elected by many black people because of his skin color instead for what he could bring to the table. At the end, deception. He did not keep up with his promises, as all the politicians usually do. He has not been any different.

@MissG - We have a right to disagree. I do believe that he's done a good job, after being handed a nightmare of a Recession. GOP sandbagged him, blocking everything that was reasonable - then blaming him. He did create jobs, but the top 1% moved jobs overseas to CHINA, thanks to NAFTA. We need to rescind that. But big business won't, because they didn't like the idea of having to follow the Clean Air bills. Guess what? Pollution in China can be seen from the Satellites and the International Space Station! Let's bring the jobs HOME, stop helping China. We couldn't afford such job losses. Sure, they put APPLE on such a high pedestal, yet they alone are responsible for at least 300,000 manufacturing jobs alone over there! Smell the coffee, USA - they shipped our jobs THERE. The Heartland will tell you why we have so many empty factories!

@miss g I agree with you on the "black & brown race card". This is not being racist this is being totally honest as American's. C'mon are American's that niave that no one can see the people the government agencies target? Black & Browns get targeted for vaccines, lower income, lower IQ, what should really make American's mad is because that's the race they target, that's the race that seems to LOVE OBAMA. I'm disgusted to think that because Obama being black he was able to talk other "black & brown" people into lifting him up being the savior to save this country. When in return he has walked hand & hand with the corrupt scum bags who enginereed this whole mess. Obama knows he will be the most hated president. He knows that. Obama is not working for USA. He works for Wall Street. I'm currently dating a black man & we discuss this all the time, with him agreeing with Obama playing the "black card" & preying on others of same color to get them to like him, with all the LIES, & DECEPTION. @TINK.... We also need to see this as they are, not as how we want them to be. The color of Obama is what made him deceptful. That is what people should be angry about. As long as the government can keep us American people fighting about race, they can continue to get away with the stuff they are doing.

You wouldn't believe the racial lines on those waiting to see Red Tails, it was just marvelous! 80% white, the rest mixed and African-American. I was blown away by the interest! One of the busiest weekends, people came in, and paid to see two movies oftentimes!
