Michael Jackson's death was very sad (though not completely unexpected), and, sure, that first day it was BIG news. But what's going on now? Why is Michael on EVERY news channel/website/paper, STILL? What about Iran, where the election has been "officially" called? What about Iraq, and our troops coming home? What about North Korea? The economic crisis in California? Why do I have to search carefully through the newspaper to find ANY of these while Michael Jackson has been on or near the front page for the past week? I was watching CNN just now, and 3 of their top 10 stories were on Michael (who gets custody of the kids? interview with the doctor! Michael going back to Neverland?).
People have been saying the news is going to hell, but I haven't really believed it until just now...
wtf,
news,
michael jackson
