For instance, spinner.com writes about Boston Oldies-formatted radio station Oldies 103.3 and quotes Program Director, Jay Beau Jones, saying, "If the station plays 'California Dreamin'' or 'Monday, Monday,' my concern is the audience will have a negative reaction and turn off the radio."
The article goes on to say: "When [Cammy] Blackstone [from KFRC] was on the air, there were numerous episodes involving core Oldies artists -- Phil Spector's murder case, James Brown's domestic problems, accusations of child molestation against Michael Jackson and Gary Glitter. 'I don't recall any listeners every calling and saying, Why are you playing that child molester she says."

They might not have called up to say so, but I’ll bet some listeners did switch the station. That’s what I do most of the time when a Michael Jackson song comes on. I loved his music, but it nauseates me now.
Jolie………It’s all about the music!……..If it’s great music, the station will continue to play it!…….The radio stations only care about their bottom line and satisfying their shareholders on Wall Street, not the listener. (Clear Channel is a prime example).
To my mind we must not mix both things, the artists and their private life.
They did it. They lived their incest at full !!!
In my opinion they are two of a kind. The relationship was consensual. May be drug did its part, but according to description by Mack, there not always was drug in between. I quote ” This alleged sexual assault began an incestuous relationship that his daughter admits she subsequently consented to and participated in willingly “.
They shared sexually their couple of turn. Both acted promiscuously
