The micheal jackson saga and the image of the black man!!!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So forumites, what will happen to micheal now???will the king of pop be reduced to the pauper of pop??????????His name is tarnished, what of his reputation?????????What if he gets acquitted of all these charges, will this haunt him forever??Of course it will, but in what way...
Look at mike tyson, after a stellar career in the 80s, his image was tarnished by the likes of robin givens, the in the hotel room, and so on...Many have totally lost respect for him, and he is not the star he used t be, because this is his shadow..
O.J. Simpson, who has been in a few average movies (naked gun series, diamond mercenaries,etc), appeared in commercials and on NFL Tv, cannot even buy a beer in bootown usa without citizen paparattzi coming after him............No endorsements now, and who knows for how long...............I am not saying these are people who did not do what they did...If they did, the punishment fits the crime, but if they did not, ill we forgive and forget....
Will micheal's image be eternally haunted by these accusations or what??????????????Does this hurt blacks more than whites (issues like these)...Rob Lowe had a low time in his career like this but he seems to be on the road to recovery....so did geroge micheal..Will society and the media in the USA give wacko jacko a chance.....??????????what do you all think????????

If they're prepared to discuss Jeffrey Dahmer, John Wayne Gacy, John Gotti, Charles Manson, Ted Bundy, David Koresh, the preacher who masterminded the massacre in Guyana (Jim Jones) and the Chicago mafia underworld, then, I would be prepared to discuss Michael Jackson or O.J.
