Quote from: "MJonmind"I think TMZ is playing safe like Oprah is. If they were to go whole hog with MJ's alive, MJ's innocent, we love MJ, they would turn away many people. But if they play the game gradually subtly they will keep their audiences, slowly change their thinking, and with the right timing that Michael has in mind, just in time for BAM. Just my way of thinking. Michael has a long-term stategy. He's very patient and so we have to be too. Number 1, TMZ are keeping MJ's name in the news 24/7. I remember reading a comment somewhere on some news site, that said he wished Michael's name would just go away on the news; he couldn't understand it. Haha, but it never will! And remember Teddy said he lives for controversy.
I agree wholeheartedly with what you're saying Mjonmind and I've been thinking along the same lines with TMZ and Oprah (especially TMZ) for a while now. I think the hoax is progressing as it's supposed to, even if changes or adjustments are being made as well. TMZ may not report something on him directly everyday, but the stories always return and there are references everywhere. And I think in order for this hoax to be a success, it has to be a long-term process - it has to keep building and building, revealing more all the time and then one day, he'll be back and most will realize he was there all along, if they don't happen to catch on before the BAM. We've been lucky to experience this journey that is the hoax and I do think a lot of us understand, at least somewhat, what's going on and learning invaluable lessons. I feel like I've become more
human and connected to the world and everyone else in it.
