Dear MJJC family,
Here we have another story regarding how the tabloid media causes so much devastation and destruction for many people. This story is brought to you by the New York Times. Please refer to the story below and leave your comments. Please remember to be respectful and non fan-like. In fact it’s advisable at this time to not make it solely about Michael with respect to how the media treated him. If you mention Michael along with a list of many other people, then you’ll be more likely to be taken seriously. Unfortunately, that is the way it needs to be. Michael has many intelligent, loving and peaceful fans, but the media has consistently portrayed the fans as crazy, emotional and fanatical. We need to show them we are not what they say.
The Media Advocacy team appreciates your help and work to defend, preserve, protect and honor Michael’s legacy. We also appreciate the work you do to help make that change in your own lives and for humanity.
Our best,
MJJC Legacy Project Media Advocacy Team

(STORY)
This article is about the devastation that tabloids have now been discovered to have wrought in the lives of "ordinary people" like the Dowler family and former Prime Minister Gordon Brown. The story is trickling into the US now, but it's huge in Britain. What none other than The New York Times fails to address is the free-for-all that is tolerated when it comes to celebrities and other public figures, which reflects a desire to get the story at any cost and no matter the collateral damage.
We would like to point out the inconsistency in ethics and simple decency that seems to excuse stalking and potentially harming people in the public eye, as though fame has somehow assigned them to a class less than human.
Most of you have probably already heard about two paparazzi being detained recently for reckless driving and running red lights in pursuit of Paris Jackson--a chase with eerie reverberations of the fate of Princess Diana. Society needs to be awakened to what's wrong with this picture. This should be every bit as unacceptable, and illegal, as chasing down "ordinary people."
