Jackson's Death Sparks Hotel Frenzy

16. Why are they "cashing in"? They are simply doing their job - providing rooms to people for a price. Isn't that what hotels/motels do?

17. I found it interesting that Jacko's album were the top 15 sellers on Amazon.com.

Wouldn't you think, that all these people who "loved" Jacko, would have bought his albums when he was alive and in need of the money?

If they loved him so much, it should have been a no brainer.

18. Why take Jackson back to Neverland? After the cops raided his ranch he said that he would never go back there again........

20. I agree that the hotel's aren't doing anything wrong...Is there something wrong with providing rooms for those who want to attend the funeral? If the story was that they are charging exorbitant prices and profiting from tragedy, that would be newsworthy. The story should be about how his scumbag dad is trying to get publicity for his record company and profit from this tragedy. Hotels provide rooms and sell out for big events, why is this news?

21. Why are financier Tom Barrack and the Jackson Family, Inc. taking that poor man's body back to a place that he never wanted to see again? Greed, plain and simple. When your cash cow dies, all that remains to be done is put it on public display and reap the profits. Shameless and disgusting. True fans of MJ would allow him some peace and dignity by staying away from those who would turn his death into a spectacle.

22. Wow....I have alot to say......First of all this always happens when a person dies, no one gives a crap about what that person wanted and they always fight over their stuff......They made this mans life a hell already leave him alone let him rest in peace for crying out loud....This is a man that is loved by so many people....He was a wonderful man just look at him he is amazing.....When I heard he had died something changed in the world for me it looked dimmer...Its like in a sky full of stars one of the brightest was taken out....


Love you MJ!!!!!!!!xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

24. What I am having a hard time understanding is besides when he was on stage it is known he was painfully shy. And he went to great lengths to hide his face. We know he had major issures with his appearance. Again, besides the stage he seemed to NOT want to be in the spotlight. That said, I find it pretty cruel to put him on "display' for all his fans, so called fans and crackpots to loom over his lifeless body. Between that, his father, "Rev" Al Sharpton, the BET awards, Jamie Fox, ALL the vultures hovering over waiting for their piece of the pie, the whore media, since about an hour after hearing of his death I have only cringed with every mention of it.

27. Just look at all the money he is making people at his death, hotels, news agencies, Sony, anyone who will give an interview about him, anyone with pictures of him, all supplies for the memorial/funeral, cops getting huge overtime checks, food joints and gas places for the day travelers, airlines, car rentals, the ones who will be selling t-shirts etc outside the gates, people leaving near neverland letting people and/or news park/camp on their property for a fee, rental helicopters.....and on and on

28. Most people would "cash IN" . As long as it don't hurt nobody or cause pain in someone's life, you guys make it sound like it is so bad..when your the bad people usually..sucking the life out of people and getting mad if these stars don't talk to you. Oh TMZ its so disgusting that you guys are the first to say that .."WE BROKE THIS STORY" . You sound like little boys and girls in the school yard..Saying this, I used to watch your show but now it's just like a stalker looking for his prey. Change the name of the show to STALK instead of TMZ..How do you sleep at night?

Keep sucking your straw Harvey and write MJ on your board another thousand times. Do you do that to remind yourself who your talking about hun? Do you have memory lapses? Take Care Sweetie Pie

29. Wonder if a lot of the local hotels said they were SOLD OUT cause they didn't want a room built for 2 people to be stuffed with 25 people that would be drunk and partying all night after trashing the room, demanding room service, and then not paying up the bill afterwards. Just a thought...
