The molestation allegations were baseless and crumble under scrutiny. The corporate press acted as a weapon to demonise him; powerful figures in the entertainment industry conspired to derail his career and destroy his integrity. Wiesak frames his story not as a tale of a troubled star, but as an exposé of how media, power, and money collude to take down someone who refused to play along. This is all according to author Monika Wiesak in her book Michael Jackson: The Man, the Music, the Controversy. https://monikawiesak.substack.com ► Join UK Column Live every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1pm UK time or watch previous live recordings here: https://bit.ly/UKColumn_Live ► [UK Column Website] Explore all our written and video content on the official UK Column website: https://www.ukcolumn.org/ ► [Support UK Column] Please donate to support our independent journalism & investigative journalism: https://support.ukcolumn.org/ ► [UK Column YouTube] Please subscribe to the UK Column News YouTube channel for more alternative news and independent news: https://bit.ly/ukcolumnofficial Follow #UKColumn on: ► X: https://x.com/ukcolumn ► Telegram: https://t.me/ukcolumn ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UKColumnExtracts ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uk_column_news","meta_description":"Michael Jackson was a brilliant humanitarian artist who was deliberately targeted.
