Any statement from the estate is a mere gesture, so what is this drive to have them make one?
I don't know why some fans think such gestures are not important. When such a thing is reported all over the world as a FACT it is important to point out no, it isn't. Otherwise it remains unchallenged and that's a message too in many people's minds (and not one that reflects well on MJ).
There is media which will maliciously make up such things, knowing it's a lie and just don't care. But there is media which report and re-publish such stories out of stupidity. Journalists themselves are not above being manipulated by other journalists. So if the Estate had released a factual rebuttal to these allegations right away then that rebuttal could have been and would have been published alongside the Sunday People's claims and that already would have put things into a perspective for many people.
And the Estate needs to play it smart. Strike up friendships and contacts with influential journalists at influential publications. And then they will publish the rebuttal, not only the allegations. If haters and accusers can do it why can't the Estate?
