He's got a point. The Today Show spent most of their time showing the inside of Neverland, which I think could have been done on an evening special and not the morning news show. I didn't keep it tuned in. Enough is enough. I loved Jackson's musical abilities and his songs and videos, but it does seem extreme to center EVERY show on him. I would hope there would be some type of tribute show later showcasing his life and works.

I agree with John 100%. They did this for Anna Nicole Smith, now for Michael. I not saying we don't care about this singer, but the people who cover the stories 24/7! The media has really change and all they want is to beat the competition either for themselves or for the money. Doing all this is not serving America's journalism. Instead, people begin to watch the news less in the national level because of media coverage that the reporters, anchors, and the organizations want to add in the beat the band! John Stossel is letting us know, and many others who understand journalism more than the today's' that the media is changing as we turning close or already to a dictator country. I pray that John put his piece on TV one day for those folks who watch 20/20, because it sends a message why journalism is being dicated just because of our President's coverage. John, stand up for your rights and say what you every want to say.

Why isn't anyone in the media talking abovt what he's been accused of? i just wonder how long it'll take before the accusers start talking? And how many more will come forward now that he's dead?
