Reeaaaally?

When I was getting ready to leave Monday morning I had some early morning news show on in the background -- Good Morning America, or something. To no surprise, they were talking about Michael Jackson. Then, much to my surprise, they continued to compare him to Barack Obama. Why? I have absolutely no idea. 

I do not understand.

I also don't understand why notable news shows are STILL talking about this.

Okay, he was huuuge 20 years ago. He's not anymore

Okay, his death was a tooootal surprise. We still haven't figured out what caused it. Until then, let's find something else to cover, shall we?

 There are millions of  stories more important and worthy of media coverage than figuring out where his funeral will be.

Wipe your hand across your mouth, and laugh;
The worlds revolve like ancient women
Gathering fuel in vacant lots.
