Since Michael Jackson died last week, the media has been alternating between canonizing him and crucifying him. When a celebrity dies---especially the most famous and most eccentric of them all---what do you think is the responsibility of the media? Do you think investigative journalists should focus more on the life (and career) of the celebrity or on the forensic details of the death? Do you think that a celebrity's death should prompt the media to explore all the deep, dark secrets hidden beneath the surface? Or should we just let them rest in peace and give them the respect that every person deserves?
