Jacko From Another Planet Might Explain Racism Charges

Clarence Page of the Baltimore Sun weighed in on Michael Jackson’s charges of racism at Sony Music, chiefly from its chief Tommy Mottola. “The possibility that Mr. Jackson actually comes from another planet might begin to explain why he expected us to believe he really was a victim of racism by Sony head and former Jackson pal Tommy Mottola,” Page said. “The charge surprised many since, besides backing numerous black stars, Mr. Mottola used to be married to the bi- racial diva Mariah Carey, which makes his racism a decidedly selective kind. Or maybe Michael really means that Mr. Mottola discriminates against interplanetary aliens.”
