Question about the Taraborrelli book...

[Arklove]

It's true, when I read it I felt that there were too many times that Randy said, "a friend close to Michael"...It's hard to believe some of the things said by "a close friend of Michael's" he didn't have enough NAMED sources....So, of course it's questionable. And it's true, we don't know Michael personally, but we only have Michael in his interviews and music. Even during awards shows when he goes up to get his award, he's so humble and sweet, but Taraborelli does make it seem in his book that Michael was sort of a jerk sometimes in his business dealings or the way he was with his family. That part seemed a little exaggerated to me; Michael always seemed to me such a sweet and loving person, and in the book, that seemed contradictory to me. So, hard to believe everything in that book
