Slander campaign to remember Michael ten years after his passing. It's just lie on top of lie on top of allegations that were stated in a court of law (and public venues) to have been false. Gossipy garbage that cannot even be taken with a grain of salt. The dramatic HBO documetnary 'Leaving Neverland' opened a Pandoras box of questions about what comes next in the uncovering of Michael Jacksons alleged history of sexual abuse, with questions. Disappointed in HBO for funding and airing such gossipy, tabloid trash, disappointed in the "victims" for flip-flopping yet again with their true/false claims (must be pretty hard times to fall back on an old lie after you said it wasn't true just because they dangle a few dollars in front of you, right, boys?), and I'm disappointed in Oprah Winfrey for portraying herself as being friends with Michael, for gaining his trust and building fantastic rapport, only to shove this knife in his back (metaphorically) now that he's gone. I don't care what side of the coin anyone is on, it's wrong to censor the past. We live in this society that believes we need to censor everything we don't agree with or that may potentially be problematic. Ultimately, their long-disproven stories merely served to slander an entertainer beloved by many, but even more than that, it caused a censorship of Michael's work. and of course the boys will say that it's all true again for that sweet, sweet money. HBO found a way to exploit the tenth anniversary of one of the most high-profile celebrities to die in the last 20 years to make a cheap, quick buck. I'm all for giving victims of abuse a platform to speak out, but these two clowns have gone back and fourth constantly on their stories, yes it happened, not it actually didn't, yes it happened, no it didn't.
