It's not a tabloid section. There's one thread dedicated to tabloid articles not this whole section. Let's not turn this into a "tabloid section". The confusion I have with you is that you seem to gravitate to the negative and trashy and I'm often not sure what the intention is. What's to discuss here? Especially today. I resent that and think it is unfair. At the end of the day, this stuff is out there, no use pretending it isn't. I saw it and was as pissed off as any MJ fan would be. You seem to think that by me posting it here, I am somehow endorsing the content? I think this article is vile, I posted it to share my feelings of disgust and injustice at how he is being written about in 2019. I know some fans like to live in a bubble, but I prefer to be in touch with the real world.

My apologies, if MattyJam wants to move this to the tabloid thread, then by all means do so.

Russ, I have moved your thread. Not everybody wants to see that shit, so at least if it's posted here, people can enter at their own peril.
To clarify, this thread is the only place on this board where crapola like that article can be posted.

Exactly, I started this crapola dumping ground.
Still RussG was merely being a messenger, go easy on him - he/she is a good person.
Sad to say, there are lots of people out there who believe all the lies and rubbish, hook line and sinker, we are small minority but hopefully a vocal one. Sadly the power of the media is very pervasive and it can choose to treat someone as a Strawman or a Superman, the media chose to portray Michael Jackson in the worst way possible and sadly that is what the consensus is amongst many non fans.
The media is evil and pursues its own agenda. The 10th anniversary has seen a brief upturn of respect and people having warm memories of Michael in glory days, but sadly this will pass and it will be back to all the gossip and lies again. Some other kid will claim they were abused by Michael, some other so called ex employee or someone who was owed money will come out and talk shit and sadly this vicious cycle will continue.

Here we go again... Release date is 10/1 Haven’t Weinstein trial starts in September. Plus this is the man has a sketchy past. I wonder will the media call him on it?
‘Description Product description An Inside View into the Dark Side of a Music Icon
He was the King of Pop, a superstar without equal, the idol of millions of young people around the world. But was Michael Jackson also a sexual predator without equal, someone who preyed on the very fans who adored him? Bad is the revelatory untold true story of the strange and larger-than-life career of Michael Jackson, the King of Pop. In the wake of the controversial two-part documentary Leaving Neverland, which told the stories of two young boys who were befriended by the singer and have claimed they suffered years of agonizing abuse, Dylan Howard set out to investigate Jackson's life and death in unprecedented depth, to determine--as one lawyer suggested--that the pop star ran "the most sophisticated child sexual abuse procurement and facilitation operation the world has known." After all the highly publicized trials and unfounded accusations, stunning new information has finally come to light: irrefutable evidence that one of the best-known, best-loved figures in the world was a monster behind closed doors--a foul-mouthed, abusive, drug-sodden freak whose deeds and the reasons for those deeds are revealed now for the first time. A dramatic narrative account based on dozens of interviews, Howard shares Jackson's own riveting personal journal--obtained exclusively for this book--interviews with family members, multiple first-person sources--some of whom have asked to remain anonymous--as well as thousands of pages of court documents. What he uncovers is a man who was both naive and Machiavellian, unorthodox, a devoted father, shrewd businessman, and drug addict whose life was cut short but whose sound and style have influenced artists of various genres and generations. Remarkably though, in death, there remains two portraits of Michael Jackson: the reigning King of Pop, and a pedophile whose pattern of abuse ruined his reputation. Fans and individuals alike will forever be asking if the insidious claims being made about MJ are true. This is the new narrative and the sad legacy of one of the best-selling music artists of all time. Here is his life story, told for the first time with stories and testimony that will leave you shaken.’

Can we not put bullshitty tabloid books in the bulshitty tabloid section? Surely the text above would have suggested this?

Seriously?
It's not even clear from your post that it's a book!

Feel free to discuss it here.

And apologies it does say it's a book in the middle of the body of the text, but I only skimmed it due to the ridiculous description of it. My post came across more hostile than I meant, sorry!

Dylan Howard is the chief of American Media, publisher of the National Enquirer and Radar Online. That says it all.
And remember that child porn story Radar Online fabricated about MJ with fake files. That's about where this supposed "journal" is coming from as well.

Also Weisntein's trial is scheduled for September, so it seems like another distraction attempt by his number one media handler.

It seems it is possible Jacobshagan could be linked to this book by Howard.

Suzie, I moved your thread to the tabloid section, as it's by a tabloid writer. Feel free to discuss it here. That’s fine. My reply wasn’t to you. It was to the posters who acted as if I was making this up.
