«Breaking News» BBC Radio 2 'drops Michael Jackson songs from the airwaves' after child sex abuse claims

BBC Radio 2 appears to have dropped Michael Jackson's music from its playlists following new child sex abuse claims. 

The decision is reported to have been made last week ahead of Channel 4 News's documentary about the star's alleged crimes, Leaving Neverland, which will be broadcast this week. 

In the programme, the Sunday Times reports that James Safechuck, 40, and Wade Robson, 36, claim they were sexually assaulted and raped while children by the pop star after being groomed over a number of years.

Mr Robson said in an interview with the BBC last week that the abuse started when he was just seven.  

He said: 'Every time I stayed the night with him, he abused me. Fondling, touching, my entire body and my penis.' 

Both Mr Robson and Mr Safechuck had defended Jackson before his death by offering testimony in a court case that the star had not abused them. 

Some of his dedicated fans have said this is proof of Jackson's innocence. 

The BBC announced last week that it had commissioned a BBC 2 programme about the latest revelations, Michael Jackson: The Rise and Fall.

Radio 2 hasn't played a solo Jackson track since last Saturday, when they broadcast his 1979 hit Rock With You. 

Former pop star Gary Glitter, who was jailed for 16 years in 2015 for having sex with a 12-year-old fan, attempting to rape an eight-year-old and indecent assault, similarly disappeared from radio airwaves when earlier abuse revelations came to light.  

A spokesman for the corporation said: 'We consider each piece of music on its merits and decisions on what we play on different networks are always made with relevant audiences and context in mind.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
