I was sickened last night by the news media, and sickened again this morning.
How much airtime was given over by the BBC to that freakshow of a memorial to a faded pop star (and alleged paedophile) compared with the airtime given to the unveiling of the memorial to the 52 innocent victims of the 7/7 London bombings?
How many column inches did said freakshow take up this morning compared similarly with the 7/7 memorial?
For the sake of whoever's in charge around here, people! Someone has shown a shed-load of bad taste with the timing there. If MJ died at the end end of August, would they hold such a mawkish and macabre ceremony on September 11?
We need to keep things in perspective here, please!
