the more we stream Michael, the less reason they'll have to mute his music.. Companies put $$$ before anything!
I just bought all of MJ's albums again on iTunes. Bought a new phone and iTunes was being a b*tch and not transfer them on my new one. Had been listening to the songs on my old iPod in the mean time, but figured NOW is the PERFECT time to buy all of the albums again. Keep buying MJ's songs/albums, keep streaming his music, keep cliicking on positive articles. I think one positive result with the general public wiill be that when they see MJ's name in the headlines....a lot of them will be reinded of his music and they will go stream or buy his songs. Not everyone is interested enough to give FOUR HOURS of their time to some shitty documentary. I can barely manage to watch anything on TV for 10 minutes these days before changing the channel...or that was about two years ago when I still had my TV. My TV broke and I haven't even bothered to buy a new one. Most of the people don't have an attention span to last 4 hours any longer. They'll just see "Michael Jackson" and go..."Oh yeah...Billie Jean...I haven't listened to that in a long time...lemme go stream it right now!" *ignores documentary* I really do think that is how MOST people will react.

I would. I'm sorry, but graphic accusations of molestation and oral sex are going to ultimately mute Michael. That's why when I first heard of this documentary, it was literally a stab to the heart. It's going to be devastating for his legacy, especially in the United States.
Calm down. Yes, it's graphic. But they need to get people to WATCH it first. Not everyone is that invested in it that they want to spend 4 hours of their time for shit like that. And luckily there also are people with common sense out there. It seems so bad because we have been focusing on what the tabloids write and the few people who have been posting negative stuff on Twitter. But for every ONE person who has posted something nasty, there has been about a THOUSAND voices who have been bombarding the with FACTS. The positive voices are a MAJORITY. Have faith and don't paint the devil on the wall already because that's really not necessary.

No. The story has already faded. The fans, for the most, are the ones keeping this none story going. :lies:
Exactly. It is just a few tabloids posting over and OVER and OVER again about all the crazy stuff. The main media has let it go. It is only the fans who keep spreading the hashtag and bringing attenton to it. We should stop it and keep spreading positive proMJ stuff instead. Post his videos, post fun memories of meeting Michael...anything positive! The media is posting positive stuff too, like the old radio interview they found on BBC, etc. Let the postive stuff take over. If people see fans are "unaffected" and see positive, fun things...it will make a positive impact. If we start spreading gloom and doom and be all "Oh no his legacy will be gone and destroeyd"....THAT will be the message we will be pounding on people's minds!!! DO NOT DO THAT!! Keep spreading POSITIVITY and keep reminding people how wonderful MJ was and share his music every where!

NOBODY has seen the documentary yet even for christs sake. This will blow up 1000 x times when airs on TV. Be sure of that. There is RIGHT way to handle this mess, its going to be a trainwreck regardless if we fans fight or just sit and watch MJs legacy being destroyed.
Maybe...maybe not. The media has already repoted extensively about it. When it airs on TV it will be "old news" by them. Yes, the tabloids will have a field day with it...but again....rememer that they have been posting SEVERAL ARTICES A DAY already....they have been saturating the market and by doing so, they are making it "old news". People just won't be interested in it after some time. How many times can you post about the same "shocking" things again and again until it becomes old. It's all "shocking" now because it's been about 14 years from the last time. But to hear or read about it over and over and OVER again for a month....at some point peopel have had enough and want to see something else. That's how the human mind works. And that is how the media works. That's why "shocking headlines" sell and that's why they use clickbait....because people want to be "shocked and outraged". After a month there won't be anything new to tell home about and already their stories are getting SO BIZARRE that even the dumbest of the dumbest will start going "WHAT THE ACTUAL F**K IS THIS??!!" and will see it is all just fairytales. Trust me. As Ii've said before, there are trolls and "keyboard warriors who will post negative stuff...but that's the extend of their interest. It rarely goes further than that. And they are a minority. If you see someone being an obvious hater...don't feed them with attention. If someone obviously won't be interested in facts and has their minid set on hating MJ, don't waste your time and don't give them attention. That's exactly what they want. It's like how bullies operate. When they can see they can get under your skin, it just eggs them on. if they see they can't have a reaction, they'll give up.

Literally impossible to celebrate the story fading since the doc hasn’t even hit HBO yet. That’s the problem.
Sure we shouldn't celebrate just yet. But it shows exactly what I was saying.....it will be all over the news for a few days and then after a while it#s old news and life will go on. Like right now it#s just a few tabloids who still keep writing shit about MJ...the rest of the media isn't writing about the documentary anymore and if they write about Mj it's been mostly just reporting about positive stuff. MAE SURE you all CLICK ON THE POSITIVE ARTICLES!!! Even if it wouldn't interest you at all (like some MJ tribute band performing somewhere)...cliick on it!! Just to show them positive news sell and to shift the balance to positive news!!!

Yeah I agree. Right now most of the public has no idea about this doc. The fans are up in arms and we are the ones keeping it alive at the moment. The Sundance premiere didn't do much harm. However.... the real storm is coming guys and its going to be a bad. A category 5 hurricane aimed right at MJ. The minute this thing starts being shown on Channel 4, HBO, and any other stations that buy the rights.... its going to be bad. God help us if Oprah does an interview with these boys for promo. This is something that has potential to forever ruin a career. Its so sad to watch this happen right before our eyes, especially 10 years after Michael's passing. But we all know the media has never liked MJ, especially that horrid UK media. They are racist and have always targeted him. Many of these journalists are beyond thrilled this is happening. Lets just cross our fingers and pray that it doesn't get as bad as I think it's going to. Enjoy the next couple weeks because I have a strong sense that March will be a devastating month.
Please calm down. It will be alright. Yes, it will probably be on the news fr a few days, but then it will be gone. The tabloids will be the worst but remember it's the TABLOIDS who never write about anything truthful anyways. Just don't pay any attention to them and don't let them influence you or get you worried. Keep posting positive MJ stuff, keep spreading FACTS...keep spreading POSITIVE articles and ignore the hateful, stupid stuff. Don't feed them and give them attention and bring even more people's attention to their garbage!!

THIS!! It's all tabloid trash!! Just ignore it!! And if you can't ignor eit...PLEASE at least use common sense before you get all worked up and start panicking! As MJ used to say "this too shall pass"....We just have to sit tight, keep the attention on anything that is psitive, keep spreading FACTS and IGNORE the tabloids and the trolls and the haters and not feed them with attention....and after a short while this too will be "OLD NEWS" and life will go on as usual. Keep the faith everyone!! This isn't our "first rodeo"...we've been through this before. We know how this all goes by now.
