Uppity Wisconsin

That was beautifully said. There is an ignorance about Michael Jackson in contemporary America that bears no relationship to the impact that this human being had upon the world. Watching MSNBC's liberal newscasters simply categorize Jackson as a weird demented icon was heart wrenching. They destroyed my image of a passionate and empathetic news station  and cruelly reminded me of FOX's discriminatory coverage of O.J. Simpson. This deja vu constantly reminds black people that in the eyes of white liberals we are a guilty headline to be exploited by the CEO's of corporate advertisers. MSNBC's coverage was not an honorable memorial, but a lynching party with a Vanity editor tying the hangman's noose by the dim light of hyperbole from seasoned newscasters.  

You're right, meaningful liberals are all too eager to march to the distant sounds of apathy because they can step over the pig manure they historically permeated in their own back yard. Thanks for being you.
