Question for State Sides People (which is most of you guys)
 

What is getting more coverage, Michael Jackson's arrest or GWB visit?

Down here, MJ is getting more coverage, follow by the miserable performance of the Springbok in the Rugby World Cup. They're still talking about it and they want heads to roll.

Most of the newscasts I saw or heard yesterday lead with Michael Jackson.

I won't comment further.

Jackson is everywhere today.

Bush is where? Just kidding. :D

Michael Jackson, definitely, but I couldn't care less.

MJ-----it's very ashame that more emphasis is put on that creep than news that REALLY matters like Iraq, the bombing in Istanbul, Bush's visit to Britain, the White House evacuation.........or other goings on in the world of more importance......*shakes head*

Jackson

Jackson is more important. Whenever someone tries to rob a black man of his money and rep, we should pay attention to it.

My vote for post of the day...

When Bush is speaking, he is. Otherwise, Michael Jackson is. I understand that the Bush administration is quite upset over this, and is planning to combat this discrepency by planning a White House slumber party with the Prez and several pre-adolescent boys.

Michael Jackson is black? That's news to me.

hahahaha!

Jackson is getting more airplay...which is kinda sad considering how important Bush's visit is.

Michael Jackson.

I seriously didn't know where Bush was. :o

Jackson.

Did anyone see CNN's tag? They were calling it

"Moonwalk to Perpwalk."

hahhahahahahhahhahahhaha

those damn tags keep getting more outta control.

NBC led with Turkey bombings today. At least a little sanity prevailed in that newsroom.

But, let me play Devil's Advocate here. Forgetting the Tukish Terror attacks, what you have is the choice between potential criminal behavior by one of the world's richest and most famous people, and a state visit that has been turned mainly into a propaganda tour.

I personally don't think the Jackson thing should be this big, but can see how the decisions were made.

So, I guess I have to temper my original comment in my post above.
