Michael Jackson died last week, and we haven’t been able to hear the end of it. From what will happen to his kids, the cancelled tour, Neverland Ranch… the American Media Machine will not stop playing this one-note samba. And for most of us, we already know MJ is dead. Unless there’s further news that he’s come back like some George Romero zombie, nothing much else is really going to be news. Complaining about what the media concentrates on when they concentrate on something silly isn’t new.
