Macaulay's Dad Speaks Out About Michael Jackson and the Famous Trial
With the Jackson trial reaching crescendo, it seems everyone has an opinion about the Big Question: Is Michael Jackson a pedophile? Most of these opinions are just speculation, but every once in a while, a solid piece of knowledge is published. Kit Culkin's new e-book,
Lost Boy, is
one of those rare gems, as it offers a rare, knowledgable account of the King of Pop.Child star Macaulay Culkin is one of Michael Jackson's most well-known friends and their friendship dates back to Macaulay's childhood. For these reasons, Culkin's name is a hot topic in the media coverage of the Jackson trial. Some witnesses for the prosecution claim that he was molested by Jackson, but Macaulay himself denied these accusations in court. However, in many people's minds, there are still some unanswered questions about Jackson's relationship with children and what goes on inside Neverland. These people might be tempted to turn to one of the many unauthorized Jackson biographies for the "inside story." On the other hand, if you want the real "inside story," you need to read a biography written by someone who has actually been inside Jackson's world, someone like Macaulay's father, Kit Culkin.Kit Culkin manages to achieve the rare balance between personal memoir and journalism, resulting in a book that is both entertaining and informative. Culkin doesn't take sides; he fairly presents details that could either be used for or against Jackson. In the first chapter, for example, he refutes others' claims that Jackson only pays attention to little boys. Culkin's daughter Quinn never felt left out of the fun surrounding Jackson, he writes. Then, in all fairness, Culkin writes of an incident that could be used against Jackson, as the incident made him suspicious of Jackson to the extent that he no longer allowed his children to be with him without parental supervision. Culkin never condemns or defends Michael Jackson and he passes neither positive nor negative judgement on Jackson's accuser and his family. It's obvious that Culkin merely wants to voice what he knows and he repeatedly writes that he, like us all, does not definitely know if Michael Jackson is a pedophile -- only Michael Jackson knows that.And so, if you're follwing the Jackson trial, if you're curious about the King of Pop's true self or if you're just wondering what really goes on in Neverland, then read

Whether he did it or not, Jackson's career is probably over, and at the very least it will never return to the glory of the Thriller years. Perhaps he could resurrect the song Beat It, and make the video that of him beating the legal system.
