Jeffrey Toobin just said that of Michael Jackson, on CNN. I guess that could be true (think of who might be most recognizable throughout the world–try getting to 12 without him). Like it or not, the list probably includes Jackson, Madonna, David Haselhoff (ok, maybe only in German for the latter). At least he doesn’t qualify as a greatest American hero type. Oh wait. Believe or not, he sorta does, in a Matt Lauer reality (you can drop the “hero” but that doesn’t make it that much better).
