Publisher's summary

An insightful book by the New York Times best-selling author and star of True Crime with Aphrodite Jones.

Michael Jackson was the pop icon the media loved to hate. Tremendously wealthy, inarguably eccentric, and one of the most famous people in the world, Jackson was the unenviable target of constant public humiliation. The media poked fun at his skin, his features, his sexuality, and his lifestyle.

Here, seasoned crime reporter Aphrodite Jones condemns the media for perpetuating hateful rumors and innuendoes, recounting just the sordid details, and reporting only the most despicable accusations and grisly charges made against Michael Jackson during his criminal trial. They had built a highly profitable industry around the superstar's "freaky life" and banked on his conviction.

And, it turns out, they got it all wrong.

In their efforts to make money and win ratings, the media missed the truth. It wasn't until after the "not guilty" verdict that Jones had the insight and courage to admit her own unintentional role in the frenzy surrounding the shocking testimony, high drama, and countless celebrities in Michael Jackson's high-profile criminal trial. Best-selling author and TV host Jones makes amends with what is not only a truthful well-documented chronicle of the entire trial but a powerful indictment against the media for conspiring to distort, dehumanize, and destroy Michael Jackson. She argues convincingly that the case against Jackson amounted to nothing more than a media-made, tax-paid scandal, and she makes an impassioned call to action for the public-at-large to think critically, question the integrity, and demand the truth in the “news”.

Highlights of the Trail of the century

I was able to listen an audio transcript of the whole trial for few months and then I decided to listen Mrs Jones book. I have to say I appreciate it a lot the way she summarized the trial for someone that didn’t know about it. I think this book is important for people that they didn’t have a chance to read or listen the transcript or attend inside the court room and their knowledge is based on the unfair/untrue media coverage.
I totally recommend to listen her book to learn the truth of how that case was a total waste of time and how that caused Michael Jackson so much pain. Thanks for covering the story fairly!

Beyond Yawn

Could not listen to it anymore after an hour. Basically the same thing said over and again. I waited for the story to develop however it never occurred. Need my money back on this one.
