Yes, I was being facitious (but I can't spell it and don't feel like looking it up). Wall to wall coverage.

Well, anything else I guess. His death is newsworthy, but I am not sure the entire evening news needs to be devoted to its coverage.

Ben, most people would turn you away, I don't listen to a word they say They don't see you as I do, I wish they would try to...
The most beautiful song he ever did.
Thanks for that, Kickstart. Michael Jackson did a lot of great music starting as a child through to adulthood. "Ben" is one of my favorites. Like Paris said, Twirl did say it best: "I feel sad for the person he could have been and the little boy he started out being"

Just saw the memorial for MJ. Now will come the long battle for control of his estate.

I do feel very sorry for his children. I hope Grandma gets them.

I was in tears when I heard Brooke Shields speak. It came from the heart and she was so honest about him that you could only but cry. Too bad Janet didn't say something when she should of. All in all it was a good goodbye.. I still will listen to his song "smile"

His daughter saying her goodbye was the last straw. So sad to see his children so hurt.

Didn't that tear you up? And the sincerity with which Brooke Shields spoke. A very positive thing all the way I'd say. Too much coverage, well I'll leave that for the broadcasters to determine....

His children are beautiful and when his daughter spoke, I lost it. In the end, he was their Daddy and they were heartbroken.

It's not what you gather, but what you scatter that tells what kind of life you have lived.

No matter of you feel about him; he was someone's son, brother and most importantly father. I feel for the people he left behind.
Talk about bringing a grown man to tears. His daughter...I am getting teared up just typing this.
