The Rev. Al Sharpton appeared on FOX News Channel’s O’Reilly Factor to debate the news media’s saturation coverage of Michael Jackson’s death with host Bill O’Reilly last night.

I did not view the clip but have been giving Rev Al kudos for the last couple of days, now he goes on O’Reilly and I only hope his purpose was for good not evil for him to stay in the lime light.
While I’m happy the Rev stepped up to defend this idiot. I also feel he is fanning the fire by acknowledging him. The best way to deal with an attention whore is to ignore them.
Bastard just trying to get some shine off of MJ. You never hear O’Reilly going after non big name or in the now lime light black people.
Billy is a punkazz. Why didn’t he get tough with the Rev. Al?
I love Rev. Al. He is my hero.
Man I wish I could see this video.
I am not fond of Al Sharpton, but ever since his fiery sermon at MJ’s memorial, I have developed a respect for him.
And I am sick of people who are judging Michael Jackson. These folks are the same ones who sobbed and cried when Elvis died.
Elvis was dating Priscilla when she was only 14 years old and he was 24.
Such hypocrites.
I don’t believe for a second Michael touched any kids inappropriately. He was a nutjob for thinking it was OK to sleep in the same bed with them, though.
Yeah, I agree Attorneymom, if Rev. Al was rapper Bill would be screaming and hollering… Just a punkazz period!
I don’t even have to watch this clip to know AL put Bill in his place weather it be by going off on hiz azz or just his presence shutting him da hell up….NOW whats up Riely!!!
shamon!
They are talking about two differant things and you are talking about another thing altogether. I’ve listened to half of the video so far and they have said nothing about the media coverage. Rev. Al is talking about that King character who called Mike a child molester. And O’Reilly is talking about Mike being strange.
Look, Mike was strange. That goes without saying. Yes it’s strange that he wanted white kids. He did many strange things. What we have been mourning and celebrating is his musical genious and humanitarian efforts. It is perfectly natural for O’Reilly to think his weirdness minimizes those things because that’s how he rolls. He NEVER bothers me. Do what you do Bill, but excuse me while I go seek out some more Michael coverage. Thanks.
Rev Al Sharpton always holds his own. Much respect for that man….can’t understand why people keep bringing MJ’s kids into this…sad. Fuk with the grown folks all day, but leave the kids alone.
cosign docjam….I’m actually surprised they are not still stalking anna nicoles daughter…
