He laughably claims he stopped pursuing a book deal so he'd be in more control of the story and it wouldn't turn into tabloid sensationalism. Yet this is the man who sells stories to Radar Online, the very definition of tabloid sensationalism. Oh, and the fact that his literary agent told the lawyer for the Estate that Wade had asked for 'a large amount of money'. Oh, and then we also have him claiming that in March 2013 (after his book idea didn't go to plan) that his lawyers told him he could file a lawsuit against the Estate. He had no idea he could do this he claims. This despite his entertainment lawyer friend Helen Yu (who had helped him contact book agents) having written an article after MJ's death about how much money could be made by the Estate. The web of lies is truly shocking. He has made a mockery of the legal system. Thankfully, and I'm hoping I'm not alone, but my confidence about this yoke has grown ten fold. Robson has undone his own case and thankfully some class fans have been onto his every misstep. I just wish the media and public were also onto him. Unfortunately, his media hungry lawyers have helped him cultivate the image of somebody seeking to raise awareness and help other victims. He plays a different game depending on his audience. I expect him to do the same in the documentary. He will play use the 'I felt shame' excuse whereas in court it's 'I didn't realise'.

I donated, too. Thing is, how is Taj going to buy airing time though? Can't be bought for this amount of money, not on a major television channel though. Amazon prime maybe. Yeah, or Netflix. At least get it out there (qualified prdoduct assumed), the more channels the better.

Even going through Twitter, I dont see much eager anticipation for this.

I really think people are more interested in the likes of Spacey, Kelly and Singer - People who have not been tried and acquitted in a court room. I'm telling you guys, people are wiser to this than before. I have faith.
The force, its, its got a lot of Power.

I don't think Netflix being an associate of Sundance would mean they wouldn't let a documentary favouring MJ be on their service. Amazon Studios is one of the 2019 sponsors also. These, and other companies, are sponsors or partners for the festival as a whole.

Yeah, I don't think that them sponsoring the festival means they directly support every individual thing that is being shown there.

But... that's what Twitter says... everyone is cancelling their subs... apparently. I like Amazon prime. It delivers things fast. Shite streaming service mind you!

People who think will make a difference are mental. They seem to think that the heads of those companies are sitting in a rotating chair with a cigar going "I hate that Michael Jackson"

Think they might possibly avoid that. Anything but a straight to VHS release! Just because they are one of many sponsors of Sundance doesn't mean they have anything to do with this documentary or that they are responsible for all the content at this film festival. The doc was commissioned by HBO and Channel4. Netflix has nothing to do with it. Netflix and HBO are kind of rivals too.

He laughably claims he stopped pursuing a book deal so he'd be in more control of the story and it wouldn't turn into tabloid sensationalism. Yet this is the man who sells stories to Radar Online, the very definition of tabloid sensationalism. Oh, and the fact that his literary agent told the lawyer for the Estate that Wade had asked for 'a large amount of money'.

The web of lies is truly shocking. He has made a mockery of the legal system. Don't forget claiming in court docs "I can't work and can't do dance, choreography, film any more because of MJ's association with those acts". All the while still doing all of those activities...
