Why was the media so cruel to Michael Jackson?

[Anonymous]

I think in Michael Jackson's case, the obsession with all this was also because he was SUCH a huge celebrity and SO famous at the top of his fame. It's hard to even describe how famous he was at his peak.

He was never convicted of the allegations of abuse.

Esp the parents who permitted their kids to socialize with him despite knowing what others claimed happened. If you're a parent, knew another parent was accused of molesting a child would you ever allow your child to be around him/her? Now imagine the accusation being made more than once. Now imagine it an adult who is inviting your child over both with and without you when there is no other child there for your kid to be hanging out with. No alarm bells? Red flags don't turn into green ones.

Diverting the blame for the crime to the victim's family.

No, I am not. But I think his family was blinded by his fame and fortune.

“Those” families. If you get in a car with a known drunk driver…

That’s like saying OJ wasn’t convicted of murder so therefore he didn’t do it. Do you think OJ was innocent?

I said this in the other thread, but at 53 I saw the whole thing happen from start to finish, and I think there are a lot of young people who didn’t, just went to see the movie, and really don’t get it.

Have any of his accusers taken polygraphs?
