Enough, already, about Michael Jackson! He was a talented musician, granted, and, I think it fair to say, an extremely troubled man. In recognition of his humanity, I did not wish him ill fortune. He's gone. Too bad, really.
So stop with the intensive coverage! He was not a head of state. "The latest on the death of Michael Jackson" is the same thing we all heard last night. He's still dead. I'm sorry, but whatever is learned about the circumstances can wait for the next scheduled newscast.
When will news organizations learn that the best that can be said of this wall-to- wall coverage of any celebrity's death is that it's repetitive and boring. There's only so much that can be said, and very few people we need to hear say it. Quit! Enough! Say good night, NBC, CBS, CNN, Fox, ABC, MSNBC, and all the rest.
