WHAT MARTIN BASHIR DID WAS UGLY AND UNFROFESSIONAL, MICHAEL TRUSTED IN HIM, JUST TO TURN AROUND AND MADE EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO MAKE MICHAEL LOOK BAD, I SAW IT LAST NIGHT AND FOR THE FIRST TIME I SAW THE REAL TRUTH OF SOME JOURNALIST WHO WOULD DO ANYTHING AND EVERYGHING TO TRICK AND MISLEAD PEOPLE, MICHAEL GAVE HE’S ALL, HE GAVE HE’S HEART AND WAS REAL! I CRIED, AND IT MADE ME FEEL SO SAD, MICHAEL WAS SPECIAL, THERE WAS NO ONE LIKE HIM, THATS WHY HE WAS MISUNDERSTOOD, IT JUST MADE ME REALIZED THAT MICHAEL WAS ALWAYS INOCENT OF ALL THE CHARGES AND ALL THE BAD PUBLICITY, MICHAEL WAS BIGGER THAN LIFE! HE WAS KIND AND WONDERFUL, THE BEST SON AND A GREAT FATHER..THIS DOCUMENTRY MADE ME REALIZED HOW WE AS PEOPLE CAN JUDGE AND HURT ONE ANOTHER. MICHAEL WAS A GENUINE HUMAN BEING WITH A BIG HEART. MICHAEL YOU ARE IN A BETTER PLACE AND YOU WILL BE MISS….WE LOVE YOU MICHAEL! RIP

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don’t air the interview of Martin Bashir with Michael Jackson, it is bias,stupid, and unprofessional. “Dieter Wiesner, the pop star’s manager from 1996 to 2003, stated about the influence of Bashir’s documentary on Michael Jackson: “It broke him. It killed him. He took a long time to die, but it started that night. Previously the drugs were a crutch, but after that they became a necessity” PLEASE PLEASE DON’T AIR IT AGAIN…

I think that showing video such as the following after the passing of such an icon and amazing man is just disgusting I do NOT think it should be shown now or ever the man was an incredible performer and dedicated to his family friends and fans why should this be put out there to try to change peoples views the world has lost a very loved talented man and for that the world should be mourning not having tv stations playing hurtfull smuck like this.

This is disgusting. The Youtube videos of “Martin Bashir: Michael Jackson-The Footage You Were NEVER Meant to See” is what should be shown to the public. Michael Jackson had his camera man recording the documentary as well. It PROVES Martin Bashir edited, lied, & twisted the documentary. Everyone needs to see this footage!

Bashir’s documentery was secured with promise and frienship to michael. Michael entrusted Bashir due to Bashirs earlier interview with Pricess Diana who was Michael’s friend.
The interview is niether fair nor journalistically objective. As Bashirs first major national opportunity its evident by listening to his narration & commentary throughtout the piece his is willfully dangling question and suspicion of Michael behavior and habits. He craflty understood it would create buzz and viewership. Credit to him for creative ingenuity. Shame on him for creating a post interview environment that was the probable catalyst for the subsequent accusations, charges, and trial. Martin Bashir does indeed bare resonsibilty for that. Most agree this was the beginnjing of the end as Micheals spirit never recovered from a trial generated by Bashirs sensationalistic betrayal. The question now: Just how much more resposibility should he bare?
