Pop Legend Michael Jackson Dead at 50
Posted Under: Uncategorized
Special Edition - Thursday, June 25th, 2009

Pop music legend Michael Jackson died Thursday afternoon at a Los Angeles hospital, FOX News confirms. Blogger, conservative syndicated columnist, author, and Fox News Channel contributor Michelle Malkin summarized his ’unique’ life in just a few sentences.
His adult life was marred by lurid molestation charges, endless displays of bizarre behavior with his three children, plastic surgery horrors, and financial mayhem.
But he was a musical genius in his early days before he succumbed to Hollyweird and that’s what I’ll choose to remember. So sad — the corruption of innocence, the talent squandered, the celebrity gone wild.

National Review Online contributor and author of best-selling book Liberal Fascism, Jonah Goldberg, also reminds us of Michael Jackson’s shortcomings and missteps (perhaps an understatement) that the MSNBC, The View, and the Oprah crowd all too easily forget and/or choose to ignore.
I know that Michael Jackson wasn’t convicted of the despicable crimes he was accused of. And that’s why he never went to jail. Three cheers for the majesty of the American legal system. But in my own personal view, he wasn’t exonerated either. Nor was he absolved of his crimes because he could sing, moonwalk, or sell 10 million records. (Though many of us suspect the money and fame he made from those things is precisely what kept him out of jail).
And, while I merely think he was a pedophile, I know he was not someone responsible parents should applaud, healthy children emulate, nor society celebrate.
And while we’re at it, his relatively early death wasn’t “tragic.” He was one of the richest people in the world. He spent his money on perpetual childhood and he was perpetually with children not his own.
Meanwhile, in the last ten days, we’ve seen or heard of remarkable people who’ve given their lives for freedom in Iran. We’ve heard of innocents killed because they were in the wrong place at the wrong time. In the last decade, America has lost thousands of heroes in noble causes and thousands of innocent bystanders who were denied the simple joys of life through no fault of their own. Those deaths are tragic, and we’re hard pressed to think of more than a handful of names to put with the long line of the dead.
If anything, Michael Jackson’s life, not his death, was tragic.
When it comes to the ‘legacy’ of Michael Jackson, I’m with Michelle and Jonah. Jackson might have been glossed the ‘King of Pop,’ but obviously his blind followers don’t know tragedy will find you when you worship man and the things of this world. For there is only one true King.
