A spokesman for King’s College London, where Bashir studied religious history as a postgraduate, said: ‘We feel that, in light of the recent events, it is no longer appropriate to include his profile in our display.’
For nearly two decades, Michael Jackson Fans have been denouncing Bashir’s conduct to obtain and release the interview with the King of Pop for the programme “Living with Michael Jackson” which aired in 2003 and which was the starting point of the trial of 2005.
Many UK based fans living in the capital always regarded the mural on King’s College’s windows as an offence when passing by.
The Bashir picture was often the subject of complaints by Princess Diana & MJ supporters – though King’s College never listened to their request to remove the picture of the corrupted journalist.
Back in 2014, for the release of Michael Jackson “Xscape” album, MJVibe released a music video to promote the album including a section where a fan sticks a promotion flyer over Bashir’s head [4.27m in]:
[note that the sticker was removed just after filming as it is illegal to degrade private property]
Following the result of the investigation on Bashir over Princess Diana’s interview, MJ Fans in the UK have requested to the King’s College to remove the mural of Bashir:
We also launched a petition to demand ITV to open an inquiry in to Bashir’s conduct. The petition has already over 6,000 signatures and if you haven’t done so yet, sign HERE
The aim of the petition is to show the general public that Michael Jackson was also a victim of Bashir’s greed of fame and finally get an apology from the channel to the Jackson’s family.
Today is a slight victory when many corrupted and fake/wannabe journalists have been asking to remove all Michael Jackson imagery following Dan Reed’s fake documentary “Leaving Neverland”; not only Michael is still well present in the public eye but now, those who lied for decades about the King of Pop are paying the price.
Hoping that others like Bashir will follow and fall. Justice and the truth will come knocking at their doors one day or another.
