yeah i know, im feeling the same way.
I understand he was a great artist and all, but he wasnt as great as people are making him. hell, I'm even deaf, so I care even less than an average person would anyhow which makes this more annoying for me. |

The major news companies have never really cared about delivering relevant and insightful news, they care about profit, and this type of reporting is what their board has decided makes the most profit. Luckily there are good reporters and columnists out there covering the real stuff, and these companies also employ those guys and give them an outlet, they just don't make the front page very often anymore.

Seriously, there used to be an implied public trust and standard that most of the mainstream media held themselves to. That's gone for the most part unless you listen to something like NPR. I blame Dan Rather and Jerry Springer!

I know he was a big icon in pop and stuff but why can't we just move on? It's not like most of us knew him that close... We should focus on important things.

If we had been making useful progress, we'd already be living on some solar system hundreds of thousands of miles away. Progress is just gradual to begin with; things like these are just what the public wants.

I'm sorry this sounds insensitive, but MJ dying is old news.. get over it all ready. I know it's all for ratings but come on, yes he was a pop icon, and yes he was talented, but I'm sorry he's gone so lets move on.
