Congressman Peter King On The O'Reilly Factor On Michael Jackson

To add to the madness KTLA reports that "the money-strapped city of Los Angeles has is asking Michael Jackson fans to help pay for the star's public memorial service. A Web site has been created, asking for donations via major credit cards, Paypal, or by check. All donations are tax deductible, according to the site. The event, held Tuesday at Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles, was said to have cost the city upwards of $3.8 million. Some 3,200 Los Angeles police officers were deployed for public safety efforts during the events of the day. The police response was said to have been larger than that of the 1984 Olympics and the recent Lakers Championship celebration. The debate over who should pay for Jackson's public memorial is causing a rift between City Councilmembers. Los Angeles City councilman Dennis Zine says A.E.G., which owns Staples Center, should foot the bill. 'Condolences to the family and friends of Michael Jackson, but the taxpayers shouldn't be responsible,' he said."
