Taj's communication...

SmoothGangsta said:
I've already made my opinions on this clear, so I'll just say I agree with you. If this was any other crowdfunding project people would not be happy with how this has been handled and any complaints would be very justified, it seems just because it's Taj some are fine with what he's been doing and make excuses. I don't think Taj is trying to scam anyone, he's just handling this horribly, even after saying he was going to improve things.

this.

and really, the complaints are not new. its sad that after 4, 5 years we still complain about the same thing and yet he still hasnt shown any progress. zero. as i said, if he announced that he wont do it anymore, we must not be surprised. we didnt get any info. just lots of ego interviews and some unseen pics.

Note also that the topic of Taj Jackson's rebuttal documentary is controversial and touchy.

His documentary refers to the child sexual scandals of Michael Jackson, who was a man who has been accused of child sexual abuse several times.

In this case, even if you complete the documentary, it can be very difficult later to find distribution partners that are willing to release it on certain networks and streaming services.

1 Every time Michael was found (1994, 2005, 2026) or called by his "accusers" (1994) innocent.
2 It could be a great material for the 4th season of American Crime Story.
 
Time to drop it Taj and give all those who donated their money back. Your intentions were good but it's 5 years and going nowhere.

Once the biopic comes out and it is a big success (it will be) let Antoine Fuqua do a documentary on Netflix with the estate backing tackling the allegations if the demand is there.

More exposure on the back of a pro MJ movie and a huge audience exposed to the truth and lies around allegations.
 
So where is this website about the series that was meant to come out this month? Not happening?
 
Does Taj even have the ability to produce a successful documentary or is it beyond his capability ?

maybe you could answer the question yourself by looking on the past 5 years.
 
I feel like finding Neverland (5hr) doc was everything needed to be said. There's literally no need for Taj's doc after watching that. Hell I even cried watching it & I've seen it 3x showing others.
 
Wow, the comments here are something else! It’s one thing to want more information but the personal attacks and insults towards MICHAEL’S FAMILY is not okay.

Taj has explained how he would want to tell us more and explain more but he has to be very careful with not saying too much because there are others ”listening” too. He doesn’t want to do anything to jeopardize the Estate’s projects or the trial. You guys need to understand that. Someone outside the family can say or do stuff more easily but Taj really has to be careful and even though the Estate isn’t funding the project, he has to check their schedule and plans to make sure he won’t clash with them. WHICH IS SMART! None of us wants anyone to rush a project and do it badly. I’d rather have him take 10 years and do it well and at the right time than do something quick and have it blow up in everyone’s face and backfire and miss the chance. All of us are MJ fans here so we all should know what Michael’s opinion would be. That’s why there are not twenty MJ albums but just a few GREAT ones that sold MILLIONS. He knows what he’s doing, and all these insults and degrading comments and pressuring him is not helping. Quite the opposite. Taj really is one of the nicest people on earth and tries his best to keep in touch with fans and keep us all informed so it’s really sad to see fans being so mean to him. Have some faith and trust him that he’ll do his best and let him work in peace.

What comes to the other Jacksons defending Michael….Remember how all of his brothers tried it in the beginning when LN came out and it almost backfired because they know so little about all the details and the case and all that. Then Taj took over and sort of became the “spokesperson” with Brandi because both of them have studied the case or know more details and can communicate it all better. Sometimes NOT saying anything is the best defense. So attacking and insulting the family when we don’t know their reasons is not okay. It’s so easy for us to judge when we are not directly attached to the case as family and as witnesses and haven’t lived our lives in the public eye. Also, if the Estate or Janet would pay for the documentary, the haters would be quick to point it out. So not everything is so black and white and as easy as you think. There are so many factors that need to be considered. We all want what’s best for Michael and it’s a joint effort between fans, family and experts, so let’s just try to do our part which is try to be supportive and positive.

after all the critics since his announcement of his docu series he did not learn and changed his way of communicating? Is he sleeping all day long?

he really makes me sick.

So how does it work on this site. Has Taj the duty to give people the money back if they want it or the project did not happen?
 
@Glanni @Hot_Street @AlwaysThere

So it turns out The Michael Jackson Case for Innocence “podcast, has been working on Tajs project for a year, a further kick in the face to the people questioning Taj is even working on the project at all!

For the webpage it seems Taj changed direction on that from just putting up something very simple to something better which is the reason it took more time to develop.

Fingers crossed Taj will come through!


New update from Taj:
Yesterday by Taj Jackson, Organiser

Credit where credit is due.

I was going through some early notes and photos for Righting HIStory and came across a few things I had totally forgotten about.

-The Official Jackson Family Press Statement-
This is what I wrote regarding "Leaving Neverland" that was used as the official Jackson Family statement. Only one line was changed. :)
Here below is my non edited version of the statement

Michael Jackson is our brother and son. We are furious that the media, who without a shred of proof or single piece of physical evidence, chose to believe the word of two admitted liars over the word of hundreds of families and friends around the world who spent time with Michael, many at Neverland, and experienced his legendary kindness and global generosity. We are proud of what Michael Jackson stands for.
People have always loved to go after Michael. He was an easy target because he was unique. But Michael was subjected to a thorough investigation which included a surprise raid of Neverland and other properties as well as a jury trial where Michael was found to be COMPLETELY INNOCENT. There has never been one piece of proof of anything. Yet the media is eager to believe these lies.
Michael always turned the other cheek, and we have always turned the other cheek when people have gone after members of our family - that is the Jackson way. But we can’t just stand by while this public lynching goes on, and the vulture tweeters and others who never met Michael go after him. Michael is not here to defend himself, otherwise these allegations would not have been made.
The creators of this film were not interested in the truth. They never interviewed a single solitary soul who knew Michael except the two perjurers and their families. That is not journalism, and it’s not fair, yet the media are perpetuating these stories.
But the truth is on our side. Go do your research about these opportunists. The facts don’t lie, people do. Michael Jackson was and always will be 100% innocent of these false allegations.

The Jackson Family

I also came across this in my notes....

-Unless You’re Michael Jackson-

During one of my livestreams I talked about a poem that was still a work in progress. It talked about the hypocrisy of people when it came to Michael Jackson. I shared the words during the livestream. Someone took my poem and cleverly put it to a photo that circulated everywhere online. I loved it.
However I noticed again that like the personal MJ photos I share with you guys, no one actually remembers that I was the original source.

Unless You're Michael Jackson by Taj Jackson

Bullying & name-calling are considered
mean & not tolerated. Unless it's about
Michael Jackson.

Making up stories for profit is dishonest &
journalists who do so are considered tabloid.
Unless it's about Michael Jackson.

A movie with as many lies as Leaving
Neverland is not called a documentary.
Unless it's about Michael Jackson.

A rumor should be verified before reported
& spread around the world. 
Unless it's about
Michael Jackson.

It's wrong to question someone's sexuality
Unless it's about Michael Jackson.

You're innocent until proven guilty. Unless
you're Michael Jackson.

You can rest in peace once you die
Unless you're Michael Jackson.

I never did these things to get credit for them, thus my predicament. I did these things because I like putting a smile of people's faces. I also want my uncle's innocence to be known by everyone. Unfortunately people quickly forget your contributions or let other people step in to claim them. And let’s face it, we live in a world where people measure you by your “credits” aka “What have you done for me lately.”
Even my uncle Michael had to constantly remind people of his enormous success and that he was the undisputed King of Pop. The media stopped showing his crowds and his success, so he had to film it and show it himself. I wish more people knew about all the other various contributions he brought to the world... like what he brought to Las Vegas or the entertainment world in whole. Or how much he helped the entire world with his music and philanthropy.
Instead history is constantly trying to take away his amazing credits. I see things like “Michael Jackson was not a true musician” or “he was just a singer”. Or “he didn’t write his own songs”. Ignoring the fact that his 3 most streamed songs on Spotify are songs he wrote all by himself! They even purposely leave him off “The Best” lists or chart him lower than he deserves to try and diminish his achievements. We see what they are trying to do.

So as I get older I realize that credit does matter more and more, and I am going to make sure that both my uncle and my entire family get the credit they rightfully deserve. Even if I have to reluctantly take some credit myself along the way :)

Couple more things... the website will be up soon.. it has become a lot bigger and better than initially planned. Originally it was just going to be a "landing page" for the docuseries, but it has morphed into a whole lot more. And I know you will be happy we did that.

Last but not least...
I am thrilled to finally be able to share with you that Sheryl & June Valone, from the incredible “The Michael Jackson Case for Innocence “podcast, are officially working on “Righting HIStory”. Their involvement, knowledge and perspective over the past year has been invaluable.

That's all I got for now.. enjoy the photos..lol

Truthfully, this changes nothing for me.

“Two other people are working on the documentary. The website will be up soon, as I’ve been saying for years now. Here’s a poem.” Still no prospective release date or strategy, still no information on when the project will be finished, still nothing other than “it’s coming.”

Rhymes that keep their secrets
Will unfold behind the clouds
And there upon a rainbow
Is the answer to a neverending story

How exactly is it a kick in the face? In what way does this announcement inspire confidence? If this documentary is supposed to be out this year, as he has promised, then he should be well past the research stage. Also, what new information can these podcasters bring to the project? Not a knock on them, they seem to have done thorough research for their podcast. But they don't have access to anything that wasn't available 5 years ago - they themselves rely on resources put together by other fans that have been around for ages.

And that's not even getting into the notion of seemingly only hiring fans to work on this project.

Its certainly a kick in the face for the people claiming Taj has scammed them of their money as they claim he is doing no project at all, just stealing fans money.

Its also a kick in the face to the people who created multiple Taj bashing threads because the website was a couple of weeks delayed.

As for the things that fans are working on the project, the Michael Jackson Innocent Projects most common compliment is that they have dug up and brought out information that not even 90% of hardcore fans were aware or had puzzled together correctly, if thats being relayed to neutrals then thats an epic win!

Also the Michael Jackson innocent project being involved does not mean Taj can not have any sources and interviews with sources of his own, thats pretty given.

How do you expect Taj to come up with brand new evidence/information that MJs defense team in 1993 and 2005 were not already aware of? Do you expect Taj to do a better job than legal teams being paid millions of dollars and that has worked professionally all their lives with this kind of work?

Further, as Charles Thomson is involved, we know the the most educated sections of the fan base are working on the project, I dont know why thats a bad thing as long as they are competent people? There are no neutrals or people that believe MJ is guilty who would spend years working in a project like this, that has not happened in 30 years so the only chance any of this is happening is because of Taj and other people passionate about defending Michael!

So the people who is claiming Taj is a fraud and have spent the donations on other things they now have to claim that Charles Thomson and the Michael Jackson Project is not somehow covering up for Tajs alleged fraud - with Charles Thomson and Taj also brazenly lying about interviewing Tom Mesereau for an entire day for the project! As Charles just spent a couple of days with T-Mez in London I would highly doubt he would make up stuff like that!

With Thomson and Taj also blatantly lying about going of spending days going through MJs private film archives and all of his notes and stuff that were left at his death on the MJCast, for this project not to be happening Taj Jackson and Charles Thomson would have to be serial liars that would actively manipulate, cheat and scam their Michael Jackson fan family that Charles has been part for decades.

At last, how do you know only fans are working on the project, do you have a list of all the people that is involved with the project?

The most important part to me is that the people providing the facts and the script is pro-MJ and know their stuff and can set set up the story. Then hiring professionals to help with material things and production wise makes sense!

More people added to the team that have created projects based on information that they (simple members of the public) were able to access and put together? There's lots to suggest Taj is just searching the internet for people who have already done X amount of research and gone "ooh I must add them". There's nothing in this "update" to inspire any optimism for the sh*tshow he's allowed this to become.

I'd find it funny except for the fact that people are still donating to this.

You failed to answer the 3 most basic questions in the post you just quoted.

1. How does involving the people responsible for the most well researched MJ-allegations podcast/production become a negative thing?

2. Why would it be bad if neutrals knew all the ins and out of the MJ-cases after watching Tajs docu-series? If they learn all the information all fans are aware of chances are they will re-consider their position.

3. Why and how would Taj Jackson suddenly come up with new evidence that MJs legal team could not come up with then MJ paid them millions of dollars to do so?

4. How does using the Michael Jackson Innocent project and Charles Thomson prevent Taj from bringing in his own witnesses and sources of his own outside them? Do you have inside information of all the people that Taj has hired, interviewed? If so, would you mind sharing that list and how you got a hold of it?
