I was just about to praise Fox News, since they were actually
covering world events, but they just switched to covering Michael.
So, never mind.

Hi, Franc, et.al., from Joe B in NOLA
I arrived at work at WWNO, the New Orleans National Public Radio
affiliate, thirty minutes ago. The first story following the "news
headlines" was another interview about MJ and his debts and who
gets his royalties.

In so far as Michael Jackson's CDs are sold out at all the major
chains and Amazon does a huge business in CDs, I say it's good
salesmanship. But I expect this of Amazon whose sole purpose is to
make money. I expect the news organizations to be better than this.
News broadcasters have a public license to report the news and that
means all the news, not just the sensational news or the news that
gets ratings. FRANC
Hi everyone,
Well, it's not just ebay. If you check out the home page of Amazon,
there is a box on the top right hand corner of the website just
below their banner that pays "tribute" to Michael Jackson with
these words :
Michael Jackson , 1958-2009
Michael Jackson has died at the age of 50. One of the world's most
recognizable entertainers, Jackson is best known for Thriller. His
incalculable musical legacy lives on.
Then amazon places a link following the paragraph, saying "
Discover the great works of Michael Jackson " which links to a page
with all of Jackson's work on sale at amazon.
So the question is this.... is it a true tribute, or is it
exploitation ?
