Was MJ Framed' eBook & Paperback To Be Released
(۲۹-۹-۲۰۱۲) The GQ cover story 'Was Michael Jackson Framed' by award-winning journalist and GQ senior writer Mary A. Fischer became an international sensation by exploring for the first time in the media in detail the other side - the defense side - of the ۱۹۹۳ Michael Jackson scandal concerning allegations of child molestation. So far it was difficult to find and access the original and authorized GQ story. However, an authorized and unedited version of the article is now being released as an eBook and a paperback (۴۰ pages) with new images, a new cover and foreword by the author.
The excellent article investigated in-depth Michael Jackson's three adult accusers and the motives behind their '۹۳ allegations. As the media rushed to judgment about the allegations - that Michael Jackson had molested a ۱۳-year-old boy -- no one bothered to look in depth at the adult accusers. Mary A. Fischer, known for investigating controversial, under-reported stories, took on the assignment. She spent months delving into the backgrounds of Evan Chandler and his attorney Barry K. Rothman, Michael's main accusers. What emerged from Fischer's examination, based on court documents, business records and scores of interviews, some with confidential sources who would only meet in out of the way places, was a persuasive argument that Michael Jackson molested no one and that he himself may have been the victim of a well-conceived plan to extract money from him. More than that, it was a classic story of greed, ambition, misconceptions on the part of police and prosecutors, a lazy and sensation-seeking media and the use of a powerful, hypnotic drug. Today, it remains an important, relevant story about how a case was simply invented.
The e-book and the paperback will be available on Amazon USA starting October ۴, ۲۰۱۲. Please check your national Amazon stores to see whether it is also available in your country.
MJFC is highly recommending to read this excellent and well researched article.
