Pee Wee Hermon did a kids show for a little while. Michael Jackson is the King of Pop on par with Elvis Presley still selling records.

Is no Michael Jackson.

That’s pretty much the nature of corporate media. Then again, no news is good news.

I miss Pee Wee Herman. His death brings me back to my childhood when I grew up, watching his show every Saturday morning along with Ninja Turtles, Garfield and Friends, Looney Tunes, and Muppet Babies. But in the evening there was always a brand new Peanuts special to look forward to. Those were some good old days.

You have to ask? Michael Jackson was a mega-star; probably one of the biggest stars ever known. Paul Rueben was not even close and his appeal was very limited. Maybe he was a favourite of yours but you shouldn’t expect the same attention to his passing as would be paid to someone with a much, much larger public profile.

Pee Wee Herman was a washed up personality.

Michael Jackson was preparing to do something like a 40 date performance In London to 20,000 people a night.

Can you see the difference?

If some celebrities were popular in life, then they’re ten times more so in death. That they have to die to receive the accolades is awful.
