Couldn't have said it better myself. It's a damn shame the media circus that surrounds a death like Michael Jackson's. Sure, people should be mourned, but does everyone have cover every second of what's happening?

Glad you enjoy the read PigPen, the biggest thing this country takes for granted is our military day in day out.  My favorite quote from the article : In fact, now that the deaths of our warriors aren't useful for the media to use as a daily hammer with which to pound the current administration, it appears their interest in those we lose has waned quite a bit, even from it's former scarce attention.  
God how true is that!!!

    The funeral coverage was over the top, and even though MICHAEL JACKSON was  an incredible talent, our soldiers deserve  so much more!

It's so sad.  Here we have a bunch of heros who died protecting us from Muslim extremists who want western society dead, and those across western society waste the freedom they protected by worshipping a celebrity.

So add me to the list of people who agree with you.  Even Fox News wasted too much time on it, and they're supposed to be above that kind of leftist superficial pseudonews.  Not only is it disgusting how the media covered this death, but I find it even more disgusting how so many people seemed to be consumed by it! 

I know a woman (why is it always a woman?) who was devastated by his death.  I think I pissed her off when I said "celebrities are like cockroaches, when 1 dies there's 10 more ready to take their place."  OK, let's say you're a fan.  The guy had tons of albums that aren't going anywhere so it's not like you won't be able to listen to his music anymore.
