At the end of the day I do think people saw him as an easy target for making some money.
Undoubtedly. Makes you wonder who the 'sick' ones are if you consider Jackson (a little creepily, granted) gave ill/underpriveleged children the time of their lives (no jokes, please
) and then the families made allegations against him, yet were happy to take money to shut them up.
If I had a kid who had been abused no amount of money could make me drop the case against the abuser.
Jackson clearly had serious emotional issues, however, if you look at the facts, he is an absolute legend. One of, if not the, greatest performer ever. He reached heights that will never be scaled again by modern day pop musicians.
That said, some of these jokes are pretty funny.
