Hi, folks. I'm new to the form having just registered.
I'm guessing this is the best place to come with this query. I'm not a Michael Jackson superfan, though I do like almost everything he did solo and with The Jacksons up until 1982. Now I've never believed the abuse narratives, even though they've now settled as an accepted truth in the general public consciousness, and despite nobody knowing any of the facts (much like the Woody Allen allegations, I suppose).
I was having a conversation yesterday with two people and this subject came up. I said that I didn't believe any of the allegations but I was unable to elaborate as deeply as I'd have liked; I once read an excellent deconstruction of the Chandler case, which I've long since forgotten most of, and to a lesser degree I've read about the Robson allegations.
So I'm looking for recommended reading/listening/viewing for books/websites/podcasts that look at all of the allegations from Chandler up until the most recent (Robson & Safechuck?) and which sensibly look at the facts and the evidence and expose the shakiness of the general case for MJ as an abuser.
Looking forward to reading your responses.
