3 days ago I sent an email to the MJ ESTATE encouraging them to get out in the public eye defending MJ against Dan Reed & company in the media.
I have received a response now. Below is both my original email and the response from MJ Esatate Alicia Yaffe:
I am putting this in its own thread, because if I put in the sundance thread it will vanish immediately and many board members will mis it. Since almost everyone is questioning the estates actions or lack of actions, I think its useful for the everyone to at least get a statement from them in generals terms of whats going!

Hi Leif:
Thanks so much for taking the time to write in with your suggestions. We appreciate your passion and that of all of the fans who are sharing their thoughts and suggestions as well. While much of the Estate’s activity is not visible to the public, the members of the Estate team, which include lawyers, PR professionals, and other specialists are all working in concert to execute the strategy that they have determined will be best in light of the litigation file and their other on-going efforts to protect Michael’s legacy. While the strategy employed is not always emotionally satisfying to the fan community, the Estate is best positioned to synthesize all of the available information both public and proprietary and execute a strategy using that information.
That being said, the efforts of the fan community to combat the lies in Leaving Neverland have been important and helpful in spreading the message.

Original email to Alicia from me:
Hi Alicia.
My name is Leif Bjorling and I am a lifetime MJ fan from sweden.
Now I understand you receive tons of emails and probably you already have a plan, but I just feel I need to share a suggestion on how further defend Michael against Leaving Neverland and its backslash.
I believe strongly that the MJ estate need to represent MJ in the media the coming weeks when Leaving Neverland will reach its peak in publicity. Dan Reed and his crew are doing major promotion and will probably step it up even more! Of course they are aided by the worldwide media who prints 25 year old lies as NEWS on a daily basis - everything about money, forget about the facts or truth.
Regardless, to my point:
The MJ estate must have PR-lawyer - better yet - SEVERAL of them that are representing Michaels side of the story in the media. And these people should embark on a media tour all over the united states, traveling to most of the biggest citys to appear on radio, TV and local newspapers in the coming weeks.
Tom Mesereau is NOT even GOOD ENOUGH for the job.
I absolutely love Mesereau and all he has done for Michael - to defend Michael to this day its amazing! I will be forever grateful for that,
However, Mesereau is NOT UP TO DATE with the Robson & Safechuck claims at all. If you listed to his work defending Michael since the Robson case broke - he repeats time after time he has not followed the legal cases and therefore can not go into ANY details at all. But we need someone with special knowledge of Robson & Safechuck.
Mesereau is awesome to explain the scheme of exploiting MJ and debunking the 2005 trial.
But as regards to Leaving Neverland, I feel the laweyers who handled the Safechuck & Robson civil suits are much better equipped representing MJ in the media. They know the facts, have studied the documents, know what Wade & Safechuck is all about.
If the the lawyers who handled the litigation can not do it, have someone else thats EQUIPPED with all the facts handle it.

I am on facebook, twitter and youtube defending MJ with facts. When the Leaving Neverland trailer was posted by HBO and Channel 4, I spent 12 hours straight on facebook to get the facts out and balance out the "hate" coming from regular people who knows the medias agenda as the truth.
We already seen it and heard, and I believe that as Leaving Neverland airs, ther will be a media frenzy like NEVER BEFORE - and more and more people will start asking for MJ to be muted.
Any other person thats in trouble has lawyers representing them if they can not be there themselves - I sincerely hope that you will make sure to the same for Michael Jackson.

Simply put, it would even be better to have me on the TV-shows, than not having anyone there AT ALL - most shows would welcome someone to speak for MJ!
We need the lawyers who handled the litigation to defend MJ in public - these persons can PICK APART Robson & Safechuck from the top of their heads IN DETAILS! Not many people have read up on all the facts.
The Estate need to launch a full scale attack and GET THE FACTS OUT IN THE PUBLIC EYE! Where general people will see it! Lets face it, nobody but fans will read the estates 53 page letter, or even 10 page letter!
IMPORTANT:
Dont get me wrong. I LOVED these letters, they are brilliant, and I am thankful for them, but they wont reach the masses.
The fanbase are doing everything possible, but we need your help to get the truth out on TV, radio and newspapers in this critical time.
Lets fight together to preserve Michaels legacy!
Thank you so much in advance and take care
Best wishes
Leif Bjorling
