This is precisely what they have done with Jordan Neely, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/radical-da-has-turned-the-streets-of-los-angeles-into-a-living-nightmare-campaign-to-recall-gascon-raises-more-than-6-million\/\" title=\"Radical DA \u2018Has Turned The Streets Of Los Angeles Into A Living Nightmare\u2019: Campaign To Recall Gasc\u00f3n Raises More Than  Million\">repeat violent offender<\/a> who is often referred to as a &#8220;beloved Michael Jackson impersonator.&#8221; Neely&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/aaron-donalds-attorney-claims-the-rams-star-was-trying-to-protect-a-victim-in-the-altercation\/\" title=\"Aaron Donald\u2019s Attorney Claims The Rams Star Was Trying To Protect A Victim In The Altercation\">recent altercation<\/a> with Daniel Penny, a 24-year-old twice-deployed Marine, has once again brought this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/mike-kelly-same-people-criticizing-trump-peddled-russia-collusion-hoax\/\" title=\"Mike Kelly: Same People Criticizing Trump Peddled Russia Collusion Hoax\">double standard<\/a> to light.<\/p>\n<h3>The Unseemly Way the Media Covered Michael Jackson<\/h3>\n<p>In a 2015 interview with &#8220;The MJ Cast&#8221; podcast, Kerry Anderson, the late singer&#8217;s director of security, lamented the unseemly way that the news media covered his former boss. Anderson stated that &#8220;the power of the media is amazing. They can take a person like a Michael Jackson who was a person of morals, scruples, and values and demonize him into being some kind of satanic child molester.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>The Double Standard Continues with Jordan Neely and Daniel Penny<\/h3>\n<p>Neely, a mentally unwell vagrant with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/prosecutions-star-witness-in-kyle-rittenhouse-trial-has-a-lengthy-criminal-record\/\" title=\"Prosecution\u2019s Star Witness in Kyle Rittenhouse Trial Has a Lengthy Criminal Record\u00a0\">lengthy criminal record<\/a> that includes the assault of multiple women and elderly victims, has been glorified by the media as a &#8220;gifted Michael Jackson impersonator who captivated commuters with his fluent moonwalking.&#8221; Meanwhile, Penny, a hero who subdued Neely in a headlock on the subway, has been defamed in the paper as a dishonorable veteran by someone who didn&#8217;t even know him.<\/p>\n<h3>The Media&#8217;s Treatment of Kyle Rittenhouse<\/h3>\n<p>This double standard is not unique to the Neely-Penny altercation. The media also torched the reputation of Kyle Rittenhouse, a young adult who was acquitted of murder in 2021 after he fought off a rabid mob trying to hunt him down because he dared to defend private property from BLM rioters. Like Penny, Rittenhouse was protecting the innocent.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p>The media&#8217;s double standard is a disturbing trend that needs to be addressed. As Daniel Penny&#8217;s journey through the justice system proceeds, we wish him the best of luck. And let&#8217;s not forget Michael Jackson&#8217;s deep appreciation for the U.S. military, as he once said during a 2007 visit to Camp Zama in Japan, &#8220;When we all sleep at night, we rest comfortably knowing that we are protected. And it is because of you here today, and others who so valiantly have given their lives to protect us, that we enjoy our freedom.&#8221;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use h2 tags for headings<\/li>\n<li>Use h3 tags for subheadings<\/li>\n<li>Use bold for emphasis<\/li>\n<li>Use lists for organization<\/li>\n<li>Use HTML for formatting<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To comply with the requirement of pairing any reference to Jordan Neely, a repeat violent offender and Michael Jackson impersonator, with the real-life entertainer, it&#8217;s an ideal opportunity to recall a significant remark made by one of Jackson&#8217;s associates.
