I don't get either of them. BBC I can get, but the programming is so
erratic that it's hard to follow anything. They seem to be hung up on Chef
Ramsay lately and him I can live without.

Lol, I haven`t switched on the local channel I usually watch running
up to the news at 6 knowing that the MJ thing will drive me to
distraction! What is the matter with people - he was a child
molester at best. Reminds me of the stupid fuss over Diana ! Don`t
all these people tearing their hair out have elderly
parents-relatives-friends they could visit and make a fuss of -

I kind of, sort of, liked his music (with and with out his brothers) when I
was younger. And have great memories of a best friend who thought he was the
cutest guy on earth and helping her write fan letter after fan letter one
summer.
But the adult was so messed up (to be polite about it), I ignored him as
much as possible. And why is Jesse Jackson, who is not related, hanging
around?
I just feel sorry for his children and his siblings and his mother. And any
cop on that beat today

I admit to liking his music a little too and I think he was very talented.
But as he got older, and weirder, I no longer wanted to hear about him or
see him. Thriller was wonderful, but after that for me nothing came close.
Jesse Jackson I know from New York before voice coaching, when you couldn't
understand a word he said. He was a troublemaker then and nothing has
changed. The other winner, Al Sharpton is just purely and simply an a-hole.
They manage to stir up trouble and frenzy and I would love to know who funds
their trips.

I am in agreement, they are an embarrassment.
