Boycott German TV RTL and Explosiv Magazine!!



I find this video to be offensive and not a funny joke or a lesson which I felt needed to be taught.

This video has been viewed by over 880,000 people. The video suggests that the "King of Pop" is alive and gets out of the coroner's van and enters an unidentified building. I hope that no one had hopes that this is an actual video?

German TV station RTL has admitted to making the video in Cologne for its magazine Explosiv and sending it out into the ether on Aug. 25 to see what people would do with the infauxmation.

"We sent out a press release before we did the video to alert everyone that it was fake, but once posted it spread really fast," RTL spokesman Heike Schultz told CNN.com.

"This was so obviously fake in the case of Michael Jackson, it just was not possible," she said.

Schultz said that the reaction to RTL's little experiment have been mixed, with some fans offended and creeped out that the station used Jackson's death as its variable and them as guinea pigs, while others appreciated the lesson in how easy it is to spread false information.

Are you kidding me? Reactions were mixed? Everyone should be angry and boycott the station and the magazine for such an insensitive hoax. I would also expect a public apology to the three children who are left without a father.

This makes me SICK! What if MJ's children were to see this... DO YOU HAVE NO SENSE??
