    I’ve always believed Michael Jackson to be innocent. Thank you for creating this site.

    Michael Jackson is innocent. He was never capable of hurting anyone in any way. Throughout his life, Michael treated everyone with respect. He was always nice to everyone, always polite, never rude — not even to the those who exploited him or the media that have been intent on making money out of destroying him to the public. It’s about time we reveal the real Michael Jackson and make his extortionists pay.

    The criteria for being a journalist these days: people who are immoral, lack scruples, decency, shame, respect for others, and most importantly, honesty. In other words, all slime balls are welcome to the land of television! People are trying to protect children from Internet and social network bullying, bullying in schools, and bullying at universities. Well, they should start by protecting them from television. The media’s coverage of Michael Jackson is a blatant example of bullying and spreading of biased, hurtful, disrespectful lies and rumors. How can society improve when such a large sector of media and the people who work for them set such a clear example of all that is wrong and immoral in our society today?

    Time to stand and fight for right. The overwhelming majority of journalists are downright bullies. I do remember [Geraldo] Rivera standing virtually alone in his view that MJ was innocent, and even commenting during the trial that it was no less than a witch hunt. It’s my understanding that while it was felt it may have been more harmful to MJ to have an endless string of celebs going into court to support or testify, I cannot understand the ringing silence from those very friends and colleagues after the case finished with a resounding “Not Guilty.” I hope Rivera keeps his word and continues to dig at the truth, even as time passes. The more research I do regarding MJ and the media, the sicker it makes me. Gentle, forgiving souls make easy targets. Just watch kids in a playground.

    Geraldo knew Michael was falsely accused. In this Fox News discussion with Bill O’Reilly, he concedes that Michael’s relationship with children was inappropriate, which it was not. Michael’s room was a fun place to be. He entertained in that two level room. Parents were always there, and any one of his guests were always welcome. The media try to make it inappropriate because a bed was in that room. This is ridiculous. After video games and fun times were over, people would fall asleep anywhere. O’Reilly still suggests it was wrong, and I guess Geraldo seemingly relented because he works for this network. But it wasn’t wrong. Michael was an innocent and kind soul who wanted to give children that wanted to meet him a happy and carefree life and childhood he never had. There is nothing inappropriate about being that caring. Other parents understood that. It was only the money grubbing extortionists that made what he was trying to do seem sinister. They wanted money any way they could get it. These were pathetic excuses for human beings.

    I never thought MJ was guilty. I am proud to say, I have been a Michael Jackson fan for over 40 years. I feel blessed to have witnessed his entire career! I so agree with what Geraldo says… Right now, today, Dr. Murray is still allowed to practice medicine. People are actually asking him for his autograph! Anything for money.

    Michael Jackson is the best! Bill O’Reilly is a racist! He also said Michael bleached his skin because he was ashamed of being black (which is not true). Shame on Bill O’Reilly!

    I am tired of all this being relegated to the internet! It is time that the truth about Michael make it to mainstream media. Let them admit they contributed to this dear man’s demise. They were loud in their ripping him apart. They should be just as loud in their admission that they were WRONG! WE WANT TOTAL AND COMPLETE VINDICATION FOR MICHAEL. All will not be well if mainstream media does not admit their part in this wonderful man’s life coming to an end way too soon. NOTHING LESS WILL DO.

    Wise words–”Where were all these famous people”? Didn’t they believe him? Didn’t they believe in his innocence? Michael was pure innocence, we could see that in his eyes. I MISS HIM. ETERNAL LOVE. AMELIA

    Bravo to Geraldo for standing up for Michael. This is a wonderful website, and I thank God it has been created, but isn’t there a way it can go a step further? Could we not get it on the news or something? In fact, let’s send it to Geraldo, and have him do a show on it. Ask him to do a show on Michael’s innocence, and the people on these websites, and all the other websites that want to see Michael’s legacy set free. For once and for all. I’m haunted by his death, and in these days, all I can seem to do is scour the internet looking for the truth, and trying to find ways to set the record straight. The doctor and/or doctors need to be held accountable for one thing. If justice is not served in this case, what does that say about the truth in our country? What does that teach our children? Should we tell them, go ahead and do what you want, you may or may not be held accountable? Come on…a doctor is supposed to save lives, not dope them up over a period of 2 hours with God knows how many different drugs, then hook them up for a lethal injection of a drug that is supposed to be watched at all times, then walk away and talk on the telephone for an hour or so, while Michael is laying there, dying. His death was a tragedy that should never have happened. Then by an idiot who did not even know how to do CPR. What the hell kind of a doctor is that? He was supposed to be the caregiver, not the killer that he is. Are we going to let him get away with this?

    I agree with Sue Nichols! Let’s inform Geraldo about this site and all the other sites that has Michael’s best interests at heart, and to let the world know that there are millions of people supporting him, and that cares about his legacy and his children, who may read and see all the junk/trash written and said about their dear daddy! He needs to be cleared of all false and horrible rumors once and for all! And the people that killed him (includes the reporters who had a vandetta against him) need to be held accountable for this crime. The fans and evey human being that care about the legal system will NOT let this rest before justice is done.

    I desperately hope the main media admit their false and clear Michael’s name. Nowadays I don’t watch TV at all thinking it’s full of liars who just keep looking for money. Actually, I cancelled the TV service. If something good happen and justice for MJ is begun in main media, I can watch TV again. I hope powerful celebrities, media men, MJ’s family members and friends do something for MJ’s truth.

    We should try to get this to Geraldo’s attention. He is the only one that stood by Michael and spoke out always on his behalf. We have to do this. His name has to be cleared. Another person that would be great to have is Thomas Mesereau. He was Michael’s defense attorney who totally believed in MJ. However, I too spend so much time on the internet looking for vindication for Michael and pray every day that it will make it to main media. I don’t think I can rest until this happens. PLEASE, WE CAN DO THIS!

    This interview totally sickened me to no end. As usual, Bill O’Reilly won’t let his guest finish a sentence that he isn’t trying to railroad his own opinion into it. Rivera was talking about what a great father Jackson was and O’Reilly had to hound Rivera that Jackson was inappropriate with children until Rivera admitted that he was. Neither one have any first hand knowledge of that being the case and that is the problem with the media totally. I am a conservative and I can’t stand to watch O’Reilly for one second. The way he spoke about Jackson is totally inappropriate and so completely biased it sickens me. Rivera was right though — you had Barbara Walters sitting front and center behind the family with her associate taking pictures of the children with her camera phone and she was the moderator for the Martin Bashir trash piece and Mary Hart with Diane Dimond covering the service – what a complete joke! I have never felt so unbelievably sorry for any one single individual than I have Michael Jackson!

    Michael Jackson was innocent enough said. The media on the other hand is covered in Michael’s blood and I hope when it comes time for them to answer to their God (if they have one) they will finally see what trash reporting and bullying does to people and are punished accordingly for it. They not only hurt Micheal, but his kids will probably be hounded with this crap for years to come. I still cry over Micheal’s death because it was such a useless waste and I can almost feel his pain. All he ever did was try to help people and he was treated like an animal. He would have turned the world on it’s head had he done those shows in London. I would have liked to have seen what Barbara Walters and the others had to say then. Michael I hope you have the peace you deserve in Heaven but we Love You More and need you here more than ever. You were as close to an angel as anyone has ever come and people were too blind and simple minded to see it.

    I totally agree with all the above posts. I couldn’t say it better myself. When will we see the real truth about Michael on the mainstream media??? It is so long overdue. Geraldo would be the best candidate to do this and I hope and pray it happens as soon as possible. I cannot tolerate injustice, especially when it is heaped onto an innocent, pure and loving soul like Michael was!!! It just torments me so. The truth about Michael Jackson MUST BE PRESENTED TO EVERYONE and those responsible for his destruction must be punished. This cannot be allowed to happen, especially in the U.S., which is supposed to be an example to the rest of the world.
