搂主可不可以顺便翻下Charles thomson在另一个博克的回复

我贴过来:

Susan – The Mann Act was also known as the ‘White Slavery Act’ and in truth was designed to stop black men from becoming involved with white women, although that wasn’t its sole use. Whilst the women who travelled with Jack Johnson were often prostitutes, this was nothing unusual in the world of boxing and indeed sport generally. Many white boxers would take prostitutes with them on trips for company. The women accompanied Johnson voluntarily.

Police had been trying to bring Johnson down years – they kept issuing him with bogus speeding tickets because they couldn’t deal with a black man owning expensive cars. It is widely suspected that the incarceration of Jack Johnson was the primary motivating factor behind the introduction of the law. Johnson, like Jackson, was seen as a black man who didn’t know his place – he consorted with white women, wore expensive clothes, collected expensive cars, covered himself in jewellery and generally refused to consider himself a second class citizen.

The first set of allegations against Johnson, like the first allegations against Jackson, were instigated not by the ‘victim’, but by their parent. All the while, the ‘victim’ was protesting Johnson’s innocence and refused to testify. But just as in the Jackson case, the police pressed ahead nonetheless.

Like the Jackson investigation, because their first case was weak the prosecution went in search of other victims. They eventually tracked down a lady called Belle Schreiber, a long time companion of Johnson’s who was embittered that he no longer saw her as much as he used to. Out of malice, she agreed to testify that he had transported her across borders against her will.

The Johnson case mirrors the Jackson case almost exactly. The mother of the first ‘victim’ extorted a large sum of money from Johnson and dropped the charges. The second ‘victim’ went to court and testified in a criminal trial.

The only difference was that Johnson was found guilty of crimes he had patently not committed, and the verdict was easily attributable to his race and the negative stereotypes that the media had pinned to him. In a more enlightened world Jackson was found innocent by a jury but guilty by a media who stood to make more money that way.

There are other parallels between Jackson and Johnson. The media used to call Johnson a host of names (‘the big coon’, for instance). One of those names was ‘Jackie’. Rather than referring to Johnson as a man who deserved respect, they called him Jackie – like a little boy – in an attempt to demean him.

Skip forward nearly a hundred years and Jackie has become Jacko. A syllable has changed but the intention remains a constant, the intention being to degrade, to demean, to humiliate and to dehumanise.

Susan,

I actually just wrote somebody an email about Michael Jackson, race and the media.

Here is an excerpt:
_______________________________________________________________________

I think that the media’s treatment of Michael Jackson stems from racism, although whether race is still a primary motivating factor in his treatment by the media, I can’t say.

I’m working on a piece right now comparing the life and times of Michael Jackson to those of Jack Johnson, the first African American heavyweight boxing champion. There are enormous parallels between their stories; the way they were both treated by the establishment and the media is uncanny, right down to Johnson facing two sets of trumped up sex charges, the second batch fabricated after the first accusers demanded cash and withdrew their allegations.

The treatment of Johnson by the media was unquestionably racist and the treatment of Michael Jackson has been unquestionably similar. And Michael Jackson, like Johnson, was a dangerously popular and powerful black figure. Just as Jack Johnson was a black world champion more than 50 years before the Civil Rights Act, Michael Jackson was a black man who outsold Elvis and owned the Beatles in an era when MTV still wouldn’t even put black faces on its TV channels.

The success of Thriller dictates that many forget Michael Jackson’s prior achievements. It is not often mentioned, but Off The Wall was the biggest selling black album of all time. It was a huge success but in the media’s eyes, he still knew his place – it was the biggest selling BLACK album of all time. He was already having surgery. His skin was already lightening. His voice was already high and his friends were already much younger than he was. But as long as he was only achieving within the boundaries of his own race, they didn’t care.

However, when Thriller was released and Jackson began toppling white-held records as well as black ones, all of a sudden the media cared about his high voice, his surgery, his skin colour, his young friends and so on.

I think that the vindictive attitude towards Michael Jackson was born out of this. While I think that in certain areas of the media it could still be a drving force behind the abuse that is constantly aimed at Jackson, in many cases it is simply tradition. Younger journalists have joined the media having grown up on the racist lies of their predecessors.

I am not a saucer-eyed fan who believes that Jackson was blameless. Of course, he behaved strangely and irresponsibly at varius stages throughout his career. But the point at which the media began gunning for him was long before the allegations hit and his eccentricites began to appear sinister. The media began gunning for Jackson when he became a black man who owned the world’s biggest white musicians.

…

If Paul McCartney was accused of child molestation but all of the evidence strongly showed that he was innocent, do you think the media would tell us that? Of course they would. But they wouldn’t when it was Michael Jackson.

There have long been racial double standards in the media. In 1959 Chuck Berry was arrested over an alleged relationship with a 14 year old girl and the media vilified him. In the same year Elvis Presley began overtly dating Priscilla Presley. Priscilla was also 14 years old. Where was Elvis Presley’s media vilification?

Elsewhere, the media delights in telling us that James Brown was a wife-beater. However, his conviction for spousal abuse actually related to damage to an automobile, not to injuries inflicted on his wife. Meanwhile, John Lennon was a documented drug user and wife beater, but when was the last time you read about it in a newspaper or a magazine? In the case of James Brown, you would be hard pushed to find any article from a mainstream news outlet which did not include a reference to his supposed wife beating. But the same is certainly not true of John Lennon.

Racial double standards exist in the media to this day. Whether racism is still a motivating factor behind the consistent character assassinations directed towards Michael Jackson, I can’t say for sure. But you can trace it on a timeline with your finger; the moment Michael Jackson became a black man who owned the world’s biggest white artists, the media immediately started gunning for him.

不只小报记者， 主流媒体都一样。
目前除了AP对MJ公正外， 另外两家大报社Reuters, AFP对MJ都一样。
叫迈jacko就算了， 每一篇关于MJ的报导都不忘提一提恋童案一事， 还怕公众忘了有这么一回事。

火火

thank you dora，先慢慢看

谢谢楼主。

爱你为荣

狗屎媒体，丧尽天良的媒体，畸形的媒体。

一些有良心的人应该看看这个报道
媒体，刀笔在手，尚存天理啊！

本来以为埃文钱德勒这个人最无耻，现在才见识到比他更无耻的还有那些媒体——太阳报，镜报。。。
算是长眼界了==

独自等待

只能说，天理昭彰，报应不爽。出来混总是要还的！
因为你骗的了世界也骗不了自己，谎言重复一万遍也成不了事实，真相总会浮出水面，只是时间早晚的问题。

看完这些眼睛已经湿润了。心里很纠结，真的！有一种感觉叫痛恨……但是，我并不想这样失去理智，情感失控。今晚本想早点休息，上论坛看看贴子，然后再做做面膜，这是我每天的习惯。
在没有看完这些之前，我很想去美国生活一段时间，真的。可是，现在的心情是要好好考虑和平复心情后再做决定。印象非常差，尤其是当地某些媒体。
