Michael’s father, Joe Jackson, used to watch them rehearse and beat them with a belt if they did something wrong. He would trip them and push them into walls. One time he picked up Michael by one leg and beat him on the buttocks and legs. He took the proceeds of the Jackson 5 for himself. Just looking at Michael’s behavior as an adult it is obvious that he was a victim of childhood abuse.

But then, just in case you were unsure about this jerk, when interviewed by CNN after his son’s death, he said “we’re fine” and then went on to glibly promote his own new record company, taking advantage of the opportunity to be on the camera to promote his own business!

If this man doesn’t crawl under a rock, someone should suggest it to him strongly.

Joe Jackson is beyond redemption

Here is Joe Jackon with the Rev. Jesse Jackon (no relation?) after Michael’s death outside his home. I always thought that Rev Jackson was a twit. What is he a Reverend of anyway? The religion of his own ego?
