Dear Whisper & Pirate,
I have emailed the writer, Marco, and below is my response to Marco regarding his article "Robot," in addition, his response back to me!

Dear Milton,
I am a very big fan of Michael, as all our readers know. Its complete
little tossers like you I cannot stand. We never call 'The King' Jacko
unless it is used in his benefit. Turn your anger against the people that
deserve it not us.
Cheers
Marco

But who knows? Maybe he has SOMETHING like that in mind for a future show or something and it's just being exaggerated, like stuff like this always tends to be when it comes to the press? :idontknow lol. Hmmm...seeing a giant statue of Michael, first thing while flying over and into Las Vegas.....can't exactly say I'd mind that, I'd probably be the first one to take pics!
