i noticed, too, that they included a photo in there with a coke-umbrella and murray's lawyer with a huge coke-cup in his hand. it almost struck me as a 'product placement' and i am pretty sure that there were enough other pics without 'coca-cola' written all over it...so why include this one? things that make you go 'hmmm'... :?  

:mrgreen:

Does anyone know when these pics went up on the webiste was it before or after the story that coca cola helped cause Michael Jackson's death? Think someone might be playing with us. Pepsi must be fuming, all the publicity they tried to get out of michael and now their bitter rivals are stealing their thunder.

Coca-Cola signed a 3 year contract with AEG/the O2 in January of 2009.  Coca-Cola must be Michael's new sponsor.   We all know that Murray is on Michael's team.

I didn't know  

If everyone hasn't seen it I've copied and pasted a copy of the press release from Coca Cola:

The O2 Announces Major New Sponsor: Coca-Cola

AEG Europe, owners and operators of The O2, are delighted to announce that ‘Coca-Cola' has become their official pouring rights partner. The three year deal includes both The O2 arena and indigo2, The O2's more intimate 2,300 capacity music venue.

‘Coca-Cola' products being served at the venue include ‘Coke', ‘Diet Coke', ‘Coke Zero', ‘Sprite', ‘Fanta', ‘Powerade' and ‘Relentless'.

‘Coca-Cola' will develop a customer engagement programme with The O2 that will include benefits for consumers at the venue. This will focus on competitions and cross promotions with their consumer website, ‘Coke Zone'.

Paul Samuels, Executive Director of Sponsorship at AEG Europe, commented: "I'm thrilled that ‘Coca-Cola' have come on board as a founding partner at The O2. Last year The O2 arena sold 1.8 million tickets making it the world's most popular music venue, and since opening over ten million visitors have come through the doors. These figures, along with the great time people have at the venue, will offer ‘Coca-Cola' unrivalled brand awareness. We will work closely with ‘Coca-Cola' over the next year to help them achieve their customer engagement goals and to maximise all sponsorship opportunities at the venue."

Cathryn Sleight, Marketing Director for Coca-Cola Great Britain, added: "The O2 has firmly put itself on the map as THE entertainment venue in the UK, if not the world. We have seen what other founding partners have achieved at The O2 and CCGB's aim is to ensure we capitalize on our sponsorship. This fantastic opportunity, from provding our wide portfolio of great-tasting drinks to offering exclusve prizes to consumers on ‘Coke Zone', opens the channel for us to maximise dialogue with O2 customers. CCGB has had a long association with AEG in the United States and we are pleased to be extending this relationship to the UK."

‘Coca-Cola' joins a prestigious list of brands that are commercial partners of The O2. These are adidas, ADT, BMW, Credit Suisse, InBev, NatWest, NEC, Nestle, O2 and Visa.

The sponsorship of the venue is effective immediately.

Also came across this on the 'seeingclues' website. Someone mentioned its a cola campaign in indonesia and has a slightly neverlandesque theme. Not sure if they are connected but you never know.

I am curious about something.  A while back, people were saying that CM was an actor.  And he appeared in some movie...in the 70s?  Does anybody remember this and is it really true?  

I haven't heard anything more about it and so I didn't know if it got debunked or not.

No, it's true. His acting credits are increasing, he has a documentary about himself and Michael Jackson.
Hhhmm, maybe his appearances at Forest Lawn, Venice-Coke, child support court appearance, rocking-back-and-forth for his first court appearance before Jackson family, etc...all might be for his documentary?   Does Murray think people will want to see his documentary??

Ahhhh, this is crazy!!  How can he be a physican (if that's what you want to call him) and an actor?  Was he a doctor first, then turned actor, then went back to doctor?  Or, was he an actor, then doctor and just acting on the side?   It just does not make sense to me.  Was this for real, the Conrad Murray that is on trial now (da troot ) or a different Conrad Murray that is in the movies?
