I understand that MJ is an icon to the music world, and proper respect should be paid to him... But when the media completely forgets about a revolution going on in Iran, the whole Gov. Sanford drama, Sarah Palin quitting.. and other REAL news, then yes, MJ's death was overplayed.
I'm part of that 64% . . . however it is fun to watch the press go from Wack Jacko to endearing Michael "The King of Pop" Jackson in a matter of seconds

The problem with the statistic is that "thought it was excessive" and "ate it up" are two different issues.
