Harry Belafonte backs MJ
Entertainer/children´s rights champion Harry Belafonte rallied in support of Michael Jackson today, saying the pop legend should be afforded the same rights as any other American. "Michael Jackson is innocent until proven guilty by the court of law," Belafonte said from Nairobi, where he is on a visit to promote free education for children on behalf of UNICEF.
"I cannot charge my colleague on the basis of media reports and television programs," said Belafonte, who became the first African-American man to win an Emmy award for his 1959 television musical special, "Tonight With Harry Belafonte".
The King of Pop, was charged with seven counts of performing lewd and lascivious acts with a 13-year-old boy and on two counts of plying a minor with alcohol. He faces a hefty jail sentence if proven guilty. Mr. Jackson maintains his innocence and promises to fight this to the end. Since the allegations broke his fans and family have been right by his side. One at a time, his friends and colleagues are stepping up to the plate in his defense.
Belafonte charged the US media of choosing to ignore the plight of children who have suffered as a result of US invasion in Iraq. Lashing out at them for their, "insatiable appetite" for Jackson. "This is travesty of journalism. It is inappropriate for the media to start asking what ifs and what abouts ... (concerning Jackson). What about the children who suffered in Iraq?" he asked.
Belafonte continued his praise of Jackson, saying: "No single individual has had influence in the world like Jackson." Bringing attention to his "We Are the World" project. Written by Michael and performed by 45 US artists to raise money for famine relief in Africa in the 1980´s.
Mr. Belafonte stated the US media was guilty of "false morality" for their over exposer of the alleged charges facing Jackson, while "some US catholic priests" had sexually abused many children in the US. When the subject of Mr. Jackson´s character was question Belafonte simply called Mr. Jackson ''A gifted singer.´´
