I think fans shouldn't worry too much about what the media says any more.
The media thing with the trial soon grows tired. It's just been a few years since 2005 and already some articles no longer end their stories with the trial thing.
When the tour starts and as he releases his music and more stuff, all that will fade into the past.
Who thought MJ would sell out 50 concerts in just one city? and more is yet to come.
What i like about this is that as MJ focusses on his music and that's what people like, more will also have a chance to learn the truth about 2005.
You see, if people are not into his music, they are also indifferent about the truth. When they are into his music, they will also be interested to know what the truth was. And that's when more will find out through books and other information sources.
This makes it all the harder for the media to malign him, because when you are popular and the truth is out there, what can the media do? But if you are not popular, then the public is indifferent and just takes whatever teh media says about you.
That's why in 1993 Sneddon felt he could not go after MJ because of his popularity and people would scrutinize any malice. But in 2005, with 10 years of attacks, Sneddon knew the media had made the public indifferent to a large extent and that's why he got away with what he could not have done to MJ in 1993.
What kept 1993 going is because MJ settled, and many tried to dig into that believing there was something, and hanging that over him.
But after the acquittal, the media has nothing to dig and does not want to report what went on in court. You see, the media avoids mentioning the Chandlers because Jordy and his dad never turned up and Mez turned June around to reveal a lot about the extortion, which would cause the public to question why that was so. But with time, the truth from books like Conspiracy and others, will find its way more and more in the public domain.
When it comes to mentioning 2005, it becomes tired after a while, and believe me, people notice, because i have had some question why the media always has to bring up the trial.
The public isn't entirely stupid you know, and they can see a pattern.
It's just like an advert that when you open a site or newspaper you expect to see it there and you begin to ignore it. And that was seen as affecting advertising.
Part of the public also come to expect that the media will have a by-line for the trial and they begin to ignore that part.
