Living with Michael Jackson am 23.06.11 in Australien

Ich habe gestern von MJ Truth Now einen Newsletter bekommen. In Australien wird auf dem Fernsehsender Foxtel am 23.06.2011 die Dokumentation "Living with Michael Jackson" von Martin Bashir ausgestrahlt. Die MJ Fans rufen nun dazu auf mit Mails, Briefen und Anrufen den TV-Sender zu überschütten.
Hier der Newsletter:
MJTruthNow has always felt that the truth
about Michael was severely compromised when Martin Bashir entered
Neverland in 2003. As we've reported several times, we believe Bashir is
a scar on the landscape of professional journalism. He should be
removed from America's airwaves. We will never cease our efforts until
he either publicly apologizes to

Martin Bashir

Michael's family or he is gone.
Foxtel, a TV station in Australia, is planning to screen "Living With Michael Jackson" on the Biography channel on June 23, 2011.

http://www.biographychannel.com.au/featureddetail.aspx?ID=1105

Bashir's so called documentary should never be aired again. Let Foxtel know that
Bashir has a well-deserved reputation for being biased, self-serving and
manipulative. Point out that this film was maliciously edited to cast
Michael in a negative light, not a fair or balanced one. Ask that Foxtel
give "The Footage You Were Never Meant to See" the airtime instead. You
can view it at...

Re: Documentary, "Living With Michael Jackson," by Martin Bashir (host) and James Goldston (executive producer)

Why are you broadcasting this shabby and long-discredited piece of tabloid proctology? It was concocted by Martin
Bashir, the British shape-shifting poseur masquerading as a journalist, and his executive producer James Goldston. Having lost all credibility

even among fellow gu<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: right"

rats in England, Bashir turned to America for a makeover and fresh celebrity prey. He found pop superstar, Michael Jackson, who was
ill-advised to allow Bashir total access to his home, family and life. Why? Jackson hoped to replace, with truth, years of media-inspired
myths, distortions and lies that dogged his life. Instead, Bashir prepared a hit piece edited to strengthen the lie that Jackson was a
child predator and questionable parent. The devil is in the editing. Jackson countered Bashir's version with "Living with Michael Jackson Take 2:
The Footage You Were Never Meant to See," which included material omitted by Bashir that didn't support Bashir's point of view. Jackson's
rebuttal documentary was aired but never received the attention or exposure it deserves compared with Bashir's version. It's clear that
media around the world cling ruthlessly to its profitable Wacko Jacko image rather than that of Michael Jackson, human being, entertainer,
humanitarian and father. Foxtel's insistence on airing and re-airing Bashir's version is irrefutable testament to this.

Despite Bashir's smear campaign, Jackson was found not guilty in a court of law of the false charges leveled against him. Sadly, we can only guess the
toll such a trial had on Jackson's spirit. And wha<imgstyle="TEXT-ALIGN: left"

of Bashir? He lives on, boasting that "Living with Michael Jackson" is among his proudest achievements. A more accurate title would be, "Martin
Bashir: Living Off Michael Jackson." Indeed, Bashir successfully parlayed his version of Jackson's life into a lucrative career move to American television where he now infects the airwaves at MSNBC. There he swims with other media sharks in the great toilet bowl that now passes for a news organization.

Bashir's crimes are legion--against journalism, against those he deems lucrative targets for his greed and self-aggrandizement, and against the viewers he regularly misinforms.

Yet he seems to escape punishment and is even rewarded. Bashir would make a very fine topic for investigation.

As a service to viewers, you should at least show both Michael Jackson documentaries: Bashir's smear piece and Jackson's rebuttal, "The Footage You Were Never Meant to See."

You have the first. Here is the second.

We hope that you will help your fellow MJ supporters in Australia to get this despicable documentary cancelled.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Den Musterbrief hat die liebe Fleur (dankeschön )schon mal entschärft :
Documentary "Living With Michael Jackson" by Martin Bashir (host) and James Goldston (executive producer)

Dear Sir or Madam,

why are you broadcasting this shabby and long-discredited piece of
tabloid proctology? It was concocted by Martin Bashir, the British
shape-shifting poseur masquerading as a journalist,

and his executive producer James Goldston. Having lost all credibility
even among colleagues in England, Bashir turned to America for a
makeover and fresh celebrity prey. He found pop superstar, Michael
Jackson, who was ill-advised to allow Bashir total access to his home,
family and life.

Jackson hoped to replace, with truth, years of media-inspired myths,
distortions and lies that dogged his life. Instead, Bashir prepared a
hit piece edited to strengthen the lie that Jackson was a child predator
and questionable parent. The devil is in the editing.

Jackson countered Bashir's version with "Living With Michael Jackson
Take 2: The Footage You Were Never Meant to See," which included
material omitted by Bashir that didn't support Bashir's point of view.
Jackson's rebuttal documentary was aired but never received the
attention or exposure it deserves compared with Bashir's version. It's
clear that media around the world cling ruthlessly to its profitable
Wacko Jacko image rather than that of Michael Jackson, human being,

Sincerely,

Hier noch die grobe Zusammenfassung (auch von Fleur
im Prinzip schreiben sie halt, dass Bashir Michael betrogen hat, ungestraft davonkam und jetzt sogar bei MSNBC arbeitet und sich mit der
Doku brüstet! Es soll eben zumindest die Gegendarstellung vom Sender auch gezeigt werden.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ich persönlich würde allerdings vom "Ton" her unseren Musterbrief an N24 verwenden (hab den Text schon mal angepasst):
Dear Sir or Madam,

I noticed that you are going to show the highly controversial documentary "Living with Michael Jackson" by Martin Bashir on June 23rd 2011.
It is well known that Michael Jackson was cheated and betrayed by Martin Bashir, when he worked on, cut and commented the documentary without his
consent.

The result was, among other things, that the viewers got the impression that Michael Jackson wouldn’t be a good father for his three children and that he had a troubled relationship to sexuality.

The FOX documentary "The Footage You Were Never Meant to See" is a counterstatement and shows a contrary picture.
The special thing on this correction is, that it is based on Michael Jackson´s own material, which was taken by his camera crew.
So it was proved that Martin Bashir had cut the interview in a way, which showed a wrong picture.
MartinBashir said in his own show "Nightline" on ABC on 06/25/2009 that he had never believed in a criminal activity of Michael Jackson.

Michael Jackson was long enough a victim of hate campaigns of the popular press and this defamatory documentation harmed him as a person and with your
constant broadcasting you continue this again and again.

Unfortunately it seems to me that you don´t care that showing this documentary helps keeping up a completely wrong picture of Michael Jackson in everybody ‘s
mind.

You as a TV channel could do many things to avoid this, you could stop broadcasting documentaries like this or show the counterstatement “The Footage…”.

Sincerely,

Also ich denke, da wir in letzter Zeit auch von all überall auf der Welt Unterstützung bekommen haben, sollten wir den Australiern auch helfen
