    THE FUCKING END. Until the autopsy results. And people start claiming they saw him filling his car with gas or some such nonsense...

    Meanwhile, 1,000 children died today of disease and starvation. No one noticed.

    @Truculent: THANK YOU.


    And all those flowers bought by FANS could have been money given to charity.


    I can't really think too much about how much I hate people and their fucked up priorities.

    This was actually not tacky at all by MJ standards. Tacky would have been having his body plastinated for the Body Works exhibit, which they claim he approached them to do. THAT's tacky. And kind of amazing.


    This just seemed like public figures paying tribute, with the occasional strange subtext creeping in.

    @oywhatnext: Fox reported a lot of people never picked up their tickets.


    When one of the stations was showing different places around the country showing it live, there was really nobody there.

    @Peggy:Beautiful, like a Llama!: Well it should be no different than that Jackson family concert they keep rebroadcasting lately. They had to give a good portion of those tickets away so the stadium wouldn't look empty for the TV broadcast.

    No way. Shep Smith's first words at the end of the service. "The public memorial for Michael Jackson. Dignified and sensitive. Uplifting and inspiring."


    As usual, Fox News sees the opposite of what is right in front of them.


    (The boss watches Fox News, so I'm stuck...)
