Rep. Peter King may be speaking for a lot of people with his tirade against the media for devoting so much time to Michael Jackson’s death. Even some of us media people are wearying of the some of the excessive cable TV coverage.
King, a Republican congressman who represents a conservative Long Island, NY district, is especially ticked because all this attention is being bestowed on a man he calls a “pervert” and “low-life” who, he allows “had some talent” but really wasn’t to be trusted around children.

At her weekly news conference, Ms. Pelosi dismissed the idea of members voting on a resolution introduced by Representative Sheila Jackson-Lee, Democrat of Texas, that would honor Michael Jackson. “Michael Jackson was a great, great performer, and lots of sadness there for many reasons,” she said. “What I have said to my colleagues over the years, and certainly as leader and as speaker, is that there’s an opportunity on the floor of the House to express their sympathy or their praise any time that they wish. I don’t think it’s necessary for us to have a ...
