There we go again.


Another one.


Sigh.



Another what? Another FACT! ??



If you think someone is telling lies, ignore them.


No attention is the best solution for that.


Unless you're some sort of media, wanting to make money out of it, opinionate it (in public), explaining it, using it, giving it all the attention it wants.


I focus on the talent of those I like. If lies are told or whatever, I avoid it.


It does not affect my point of view on the good positive issues.



So, you just like to manipulate the narrative to suit your preferences and come down on people who deviate from it. How wonderfully egotistical.

No I'm not like that, that's total Donald Trump-ish.

No, just stay in context here.

Sinead O'Connor is for what she did in her career a fine artist to me.

Actualy i coulnd't care less about her, cause I don't know her personally.

And the media is the media. Both are using each other.

I like her music very much, still.

If media are stating that she tells lies, than that does not affect my opinion about her artistry.

Yes I will have on opinion about her telling lies, or anyone else.

But I don't see or feel the need to publicly share my personal dislike for her, if so.

Why would I do that? What's the relevant point of that?

To prove what i've heard or read something I can't substantiate a 100%?

I don't judge people for what is being rolled out in the media.

I still listen to Michael Jackson music because it's damn good music.

Worse, I still enjoy looking at paintings of Caravagio, and I don't care for him being a brutal murderer.

His paintings are absolutely beautiful and off this earth.

Peace to us all though. smile

What is being rolled out in the media? This was straight from her own mouth.

It will be interesting to see how they work around this in the documentary. Of course they can SAY Nothing Compares 2 U, and discuss it. No laws against that.

It's really the biggest thing that Sinead is known for, and one of the "lesser" things that Prince is known for.

A similar (but more impactful) case like this is when the Hendrix family denied use of his music for Andre 3000's "All Is By My Side" biopic. That affected the whole project!

They can just claim Fair Use for educational and historical purposes and still use it.
