there's a thread about this in 2300 Jackson street. however if you want to examine it in regards to conspiracy go ahead.
a little fyi for you
- sometime back Joe, Katherine and Jermaine promised a concert to this newspaper (and got advances) but it never happened.
- newspaper sued them and Michael. Michael settled.
- they won the $4M judgement in 1994 but Jackson's never paid.
- now it looks like the newspaper is going to court and asking the court to hold any money they earn and give it to them for the money they won.
plus estate wouldn't have any money in trust for the time being - they are in probate they need to pay all the debts first before they can put in money in the trust.
as Michael settled with them estate doesn't have to pay them anything.
As I said before with court order the newspaper can get anything the estate was paying Katherine as allowance/money to cover the debt /judgement.
a lot of this doesn't make sense,(including supposed debts being paid[remember what i said about media reporting with lawsuit-proof reporting style] unless Katherine is starving, right now, and getting nothing. and why would this newspaper add Michael to the suit, and not Janet, or other members of the family that did NOT promise the newspaper, anything? after all, Michael wasn't there when Joseph Katherine and Jermaine supposedly made the promise and accepted the money. Michael didn't make any promise or accept any advance.
and settling could mean anything. perhaps MJ promised not to reveal dirt about the newspaper, if they left him alone, or something. nobody ever revealed any monetary amount. maybe the media was just continuing on their rampage against Michael.
see..this isn't about objectivity..not from the media...not from fans of the rest of the family...not from these ambulance chasers...not from the frivolous...
this is all based on Michael's success..and envy of Michael. all the reports of lawsuits....they aren't real. they are a media wanting to bring down the spectre of Michael. the magic of Michael. Michael could be on another planet, never having promised anything. yet only HE gets sued. the family is a beard. it's always been this way. i can bet there will be no new era of lawsuits, to this family, based on the desire to see this family, POST MICHAEL ERA, because Michael is gone. nobody is interested in seeing the rest of the family. shocker. there are those who will come in here and not like seeing this, but they know it's true. the suits were aimed at the one who was the most desirable to see in concert. the biggest star in history. the object of the greatest envy. and therefore, the object of the frivolous lawsuits. lawsuits based on nothing but envy of remarkable talent, and the helpless fear that only Michael could decide whether to use it or not. nobody else had control over it. nobody else could have his talent. so they sued him, for having his talent. it was that way since he was 14 years old. that's the truth of it. that's the psychology of it. that's the svengali of it. based on that alone, the media wants to portray him as deadbeat, financially...people want to sue him for promises he didn't make, and they do it in cowardly fashion, by pretending to be interested in the rest of the family.
Michael wasn't sued because he was bad at business. he wasn't sued, because he renegged on deals. he was sued, because he was desirable..and people couldn't have him ANY TIME THEY WANTED HIM.
if this wasn't true, they'd sue Janet, instead of Michael. but Janet is not as interesting. that's the sobering up of it. we all know this. that's why Michael is this unbelievable target of melodramatic unreasonable illogical stories, lawsuits, and people. including a media that clearly lies. and as illogical as it all is, there are still people who believe that all or most or even some of what Michael is being blamed for, is legitimate. there are even fans who believe it.
this final straw was the dead giveaway, of something that was the ten million pound gorilla in the room. suing Michael, when he was not there. it has happened so many times in his life. and..after his life. i've never seen any other member of this family get sued for not being in the room to make a promise in order to break a promise, that the ambulance chasers accused a whole nother somebody else, of making. and i never will see that. if i do, i'll give somebody some money that bets against me on it. or..if something else happens on that rediculous a scale to another Jackson, the way it happened to Michael, i'll do the same. i'll never have to worry about it, because it's never going to happen.
You see..this lawsuit happened, in the nineties, when the american press said Michael was getting to weird, and they started to build the controversy machine against him, and throw the unwarranted negative bad press at him, and poo poo everything he did, including his marriage to Lisa Marie Presley. and..this was when Janet was supposed to be THE ONE. the new deal. the big replacement, by way of a big radio play and media push, as Janet fans would love to reiterate(sans, the media push). but the media was doing this, just to get back at Michael. sure, Janet had her fans, but the mob frenzy fan mentality was for Michael, worldwide, and everybody knew it. including the media. Michael was still King. and the media could do nothing about it, even though they minimized the playing of Michael music, greatly, to try to stop his success. yet, but this newspaper company reveals the admission of truth, by suing Michael, instead of Janet, in this situation. if they were interested in seeing Janet, the paper would have sued her.
i'm sure every other artist wishes they could be sued like Michael was sued. i'm sure Michael would be the first to tell you that that's not something to wish for. but the point i'm making with that statement is quite clear. everybody wants that kind of fame, and it makes many crazy that they don't have it. and it drives all the media's and vultures' warped sensibilities against him. the world simply couldn't handle the unprecedented, too much fame, of Michael Jackson. the kind of success that had MJ countless MJ fans say they're used to dissappointment, because they had to wait an average of four years for music...which isn't that long a wait. the kind of success that had countless MJ fans smash other artists, in comparison arguments. and...the kind of success that has countless MJ fans on this site and many others smashing other artists that are unintentionally, in the crossfire, because they worked on MJ music with MJ, and are holding onto it, because they don't think it's finished. the kind of success that has the media asking and asking those artists about those Michael collabs, right along with the fans, over and over. and, my obsession with talking Michael, every waking moment. and others like me. many others.
