Bill O'Reilly Attacks Michael Jackson's Memorial Coverage
If you haven't realized it by now, Bill O'Reilly can never keep his quiet and give due respect to a successful Black Man. I can say so much about this one, but Enough said!
For once, Bill O'Reilly makes a good point: How is it that the media treated Michael Jackson like a child molester even after he was found not guilty, but now that he's dead he's become a media darling?
To me the answer is simple: The media often likes Black men much better when they're dead than alive. Look how Martin Luther King, Jr. went from being 'a dangerous left-wing outside agitator' to the father of our country's intra-color-group harmony, such as it is(n't).

I wish the news stations would respect the term "Rest In Peace" for Michael Jackson, as they did for Elvis Presley.
