Michael is close to Godliness
Posted by Cindy at 21:08 UAE time
Thanks to all of you who came to the defense of MJ. All I can say is that may God cradle him and protect him throughout enernity, to finally give him the peace that a lot of sick Americans (and others) denied him. If there is a half percent chance that he has ever done anything incorrect with children, may he burn in hell.

Truth
Posted by Ahmed at 15:53 UAE time
Wow, i know this is a bit late, but i just read the article. Reilly is just another writer who's riding the wave instead of actually putting in some effort to write the truth. I only recently started actually listening to his music (after his death) so i'm not that much of a fan; and that will prove to you that not everyone who defends him is a die hard fan. However, ever since he became the center of the media's attention, maybe 15 years ago, he caught my attention too and i started really reading about him. He was proven innocent in the Arvizo case and the author of this article chose not to say why, it was because the "inconsistent testimonies", which basically demonstrates that the whole thing was rehearsed. And about the Chandler case, just read the GQ 1994 article by Mary A. Fischer "Was Michael Jackson Framed?"; by the way, MJ didn't contribute anything to this article. The article will explain alot. To the author of this article, i say it's very obvious that you're to disrespect MJ because you chose not to mention that he contributed $300 million to children charities (that's a big percentage of his total income during his life time, so it's not like it was a small thing for him) and he was involved with 39 charities and never spoke of it. Mr. Reilly, could you think of anyone who did that much? Any person with a shred of intelligence would immediately know that no one spends that kind of money on children just to go around molesting them. Last point, what kind of child molester would have buses of kids come to his house in front of everyone? Wouldn't it be safer for him as a molester not to do that? have you ever heard of a child rapist choosing to hang around kids even though there are rumors that he's a rapist. Have you ever heard a rapist publicly confirm that, yes, children do sleep in my bed! Because that's what MJ said in an interview. There's too much to be written here, but anyway, i would love to see writers and journalists sticking to just the facts, and if you want to know the truth, just do your own research and put an effort into it; don't wait for the media to tell you what's your opinion!!

LEARN TO RESPECT
Posted by Margie S. Buncab at 10:52 UAE time
You article seems as if you know so much about the controversies he’d gone through.
I don’t think you dig deeper on that matter, do your homework. If you don’t like the man then please. respect and leave him alone. You really think your news will sell on this?.Some people in media like you really enjoys negative issues from people like him. This is pathetic
Mr Reilly, I think you’d better be working in a celebrity news magazine not in a business and financial news.

Michael Jackson
Posted by Duval at 10:54 UAE time
I think the media should be ashamed of what they have done to Micjael Jackson. He is the culprit of child stardom. A child that had no life at all. He was never allowed to do what normal Children do. He was abnused by his father and starved of love. Can you wonder that he went a little off the rails.
He created his own reality in an attempt to feel some of that love that he never had before. He chose to try to make a better life for other kids who were also starved of Love and care but media chose to believe it was done for Michaels own gain which is just not the case.
He has made mistakes along the way but who hasnt !. Let him rest in peace and may God Bless him !!!

The Truth
Posted by Leroy at 15:57 UAE time
The truth is we'll never ever really know what was going on thru his mind. All we can do is draw inferences and believe what we want to believe. Like any other celebrity.
The courts pronounced him innocent and thats what I choose to believe. I agree that he was not normal on many counts but I don't condemn him for being different. There isn't a superstar alive today who doesn't have extreme end at his spectrum.
To Robbie Rogers, if you dislike the man that's your choice and your opinion but if you actually believe you have all the facts then you're opinion is certainly malformed.

Children
Posted by Robbie Rodgers at 11:33 UAE time
I think that it is disgusting that people would put fame and fortune before the welfare of innocent children.
How can you overlook the problems that he has had with children in your devotion to hisa music?
You all need to question your principles and your priorities. And quickly.

It's not for us to say
Posted by Bunny Francis at 11:19 UAE time
Whether I agree or not is immaterial (I’m actually not terribly interested in his personal problems – I just remember happily bopping along to his tunes at school discos) – I fail to see what relevance this article has in relation to your website’s title. Of course MJ did have links to this region, but you either didn’t do your homework well enough to find out about them or are so poor a business writer that you didn’t think them worth a mention. I think you should have sold this shallow, worthy piece to a glossy magazine and then written something meaty for the website that people who are interested in Arabian business would like to read.

it's obvious
Posted by ctevez at 10:20 UAE time
I agree, all those years he never had a relationship with a woman or a man.How can we explain that? Its' like Neverland was a playboy mansion but only for boys!! but his music was wonderful and that's probably what we should focus on. Freddie Mercury and George Michael were not straight,but people seem to remeber their wonderful music and forget the rest,and that's what most people will do.

RIP Michael
Posted by Saeid at 09:38 UAE time
I'm actually happy for him. He had a tormented life for several reason. Now he gets the peace he deserved.
Rest in peace Michael

How sad
Posted by kgdad at 08:59 UAE time
Well written. But utterly tasteless. He is obviously a troubled man, and now that he's gone, let us finally leave him alone and give him the peace that every human being seeks and deserves.

Keep it OUT of the family
Posted by William Jeans at 06:53 UAE time
If you need a business angle to this story then the only bit of wisdom is in "keep it OUT of the family", because it seems, apart from Bubbles, everyone was on the make. Family businesses fall apart, because money is actually thicker than water, not to mention blood.

What's Left to Say about Michael Jackson?
Posted by GD at 17:45 UAE time
A lot more than what you have got to say. Millions of people are in mourning for this man and you have the audacity to write this - who are you to pass comment on this. Leave people to celebrate what he gave us all - life changing music. What we believe about him - we believe and should be left to remeber him how we want to

Where's the facts?
Posted by Arnie S at 16:52 UAE time
What's left to say about Michael Jackson? Plenty, but you obviously aren't aware of it. This is Arabian Business, but you barely touch on his business dealings. Poor show.
Michael Jackson was a phenomenally powerful business as much as Michael Jackson was a celebrity. However, you don't seem to be aware of that. You concentrate on the celeb scandal stuff.
How about providing the readers of Arabian Business with intelligent and fact-filled reporting, rather than shallow, celeb-obsessed commentary?
You don't even mention his dealings with Bahrain or any other part of the Middle East. You do Arabian Business readers a disservice.
