can i just ask why anyone cares?

it's because jackson is famous.

if this trial had been with the celebrity then noone would have cared.

this is just another child abuse case. it doesn't truly matter in the grand scheme of things. (talking about the media). noone really cared about arvizo. they cared about some celebrity.

it's the same with any news it's only special if a celebrity is in it. and it has more impact if the people can speak english (have you ever really cared when some mother is crying in a different language?)

it's a horrible thing that this case was given as much publicity as it was purely because not of the crimes committed but because of the status of the accused.

it's a sign that society does not actually care about tragedy but rather about fame.
