White Rabbit vs Yellow Rabbit
In a previous post I showed links to articles and information about yellow - yellow rabbit and the more I thought about it another term came to mind as to why we see so much yellow in the MJ hoax and now with JB's Yellow LAMBO......
Have you ever heard of the term "Yellow Journalism"
well... here is the definition with a web link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_journalism
Yellow journalism, or the yellow press, is a type of journalism that presents little or no legitimate well-researched news and instead uses eye-catching headlines to sell more newspapers.[1] Techniques may include exaggerations of news events, scandal-mongering, or sensationalism.[1] By extension, the term yellow journalism is used today as a pejorative to decry any journalism that treats news in an unprofessional or unethical fashion.[2]
Campbell defines yellow press newspapers as having daily multi-column front-page headlines covering a variety of topics, such as sports and scandal, using bold layouts (with large illustrations and perhaps color), heavy reliance on unnamed sources, and unabashed self-promotion. The term was extensively used to describe certain major New York City newspapers about 1900 as they battled for circulation.
Frank Luther Mott defines yellow journalism in terms of five characteristics:[3]

Yellow Journalism is printed in Black and White - but everything isn't just Black and white and just because it is in Black and White doesn't mean it is the truth - or should I use MJ's comparison - - - doesn't mean it's Gospel.
Interesting that Justin picked this particular quote of Martin Luther King Jr... to tweet....
This was my reply to his tweet:
@justinbieber True measure is also how tall a man stands when the world doesn't see his truth - MJ I am sure - is proud! A few of us SEE
There is also the Yellow LAMBO....... AND the Yellow Ties and Red Roses worn by MJ's brothers at the Staples Center.

Frank Luther Mott defines yellow journalism in terms of five characteristics:[3]
- scare headlines in huge print, often of minor news
- lavish use of pictures, or imaginary drawings
- use of faked interviews, misleading headlines, pseudoscience, and a parade of false learning from so-called experts
- emphasis on full-color Sunday supplements, usually with comic strips
- dramatic sympathy with the "underdog" against the system.
