Why have I seen Sharpton on every network speaking for Jackson?

Question

Why isn't Jackson on every network speaking for himself?

Answer 1

There are few race-based controversies that Sharpton *doesn't* try to insert himself into.

Answer 2

Because Jackson is black, so Sharpton has made every excuse in the book for him. If Jackson was white, Sharpton would be marching in the streets. Shartpon and Jackson have done more to hurt black people over the last 30 years than any white person.

Answer 3

Both Sharpton and Jackson love the media attention - the best thing to do is just ignore them both......



The reason Jackson may not be speaking for himself - is because HOPEFULLY he has realized that NO ONE wants to hear what he has to say....not even his own son!!

Answer 4

Cuz' he does a fine job of apologizing for JJ. We couldn't believe it is all so sincere, if a white man made excuses for such behavior. JJ can't put two intelligible words together with that sloppy lazy accent of his. He has to have an interpreter for most of us to decode his intent.

Answer 5

Big Al loves the limelight! Ain't nothin' finer than seeing his own punum on TV.
