Attention - Politico - Jack Shafer -


@jackshafer - We would appreciate you at Politco AND the New York Times to mete out equal inspection upon the NYPost as it did on Rollingstones articles. Please speak out with the same sort of admonishment for the baseless salacious lies regarding Michael Jackson in the NYPost -

Your quote: ",.. Editors and producers at the highest ranks of journalism have fallen again and again during the past few decades, committing crimes against journalism that match or surpass those of Rolling Stone and Erdely"

The very SAME lack of journalistic ethics and self regulation that have been pointed out in the Rollingstones False UAV Rape case apply to NYPost Page Six article written by Stacy Brown- http://pagesix.com/2015/04/05/lawyers-say-jacko-paid-200m-in-hush-money-to-victims/

Howard Weitzman, attorney for Michael Jackson's Estate has stated publicly - against these reports.

"We are aware of recent false 'reports' regarding Michael Jackson having, among other things, paid over $200 million to 20 'victims . . . . There is not a shred of evidence to support these ludicrous 'reports.' It is unfortunate that, even in death, Michael cannot be free of these types of allegations, but we are confident that the truth will prevail in the end, just as it did in 2005 when a jury fully exonerated him."

Shouldn't ethicaly journalist bring Brown and the NYPost to task as well? Shouldn't the New York Times has a standard in publishing integrity, bring same sort of investigation regarding credibility of "sources" and the idea of copy paste journalism that AOL, USAToday, Fox etc employ when baseless salacious allegation against Michael Jackson, are posted again and again without benefit of research?

All we are asking is for FAIR & credible reporting -
