Jackson hasn't had a hit in decades

A person can count his "great songs" using fingers - and not have to move on to toes...

The MSM loves him because they see his creepy pedophilia as giving the finger to traditional Americans.

It's fine with me - if the only people who support the networks are the Michael Jackson types, advertisers will run not walk away from TV advertising. Traditional Americans are more than half the population and we have most of the money. Giving us the finger might not be a wise business decision. Then again, if advertisers are going for the black trailer trash demographic - mixed with liberals who hate conservatives so much they'll stand with child molesters ( a very small part of the population) - then "go for it". Well, there'll be some gawkers - the same type who stain to look at car accidents...)

I suspect the MSM has a very strong death wish - or those at the top are clueless... maybe both.

I hate to disagree, but those are exactly the kind of viewers that most advertisers are trying to reach, young, stupid and highly impressionable.

Where shows like CSI earn very high general ratings, it's other shows like "Heroes" that have a very young and sought after demographic (18-29) that advertisers covet. Where retirees certainly have discretionary income, they are much less likely to be swayed by advertising, especially TV advertising. So, our televisions shows reflect it. It's crap entertainment created precisely to reach an idiot audience.
