Michael Jackson   Michael Jackson 'fans fix'MICHAEL Jackson has been accused of organising fans’ demos at his first child sex hearing. The 46-year-old pop superstar claimed thousands came to Santa Maria, California, to support him voluntarily. But court records show the huge demo may have been organised by Jackson and his lawyers. The claims follow the seizure of phone records, emails and documents from the home of the singer’s personal assistant. Jackson denies nine charges, including six of molesting a 13-year-old boy. He is due to stand trial in January.

America is in for four more years of conservative governance as a result of the Republican election sweep. The world now knows that President George W. Bush has political support for his brand of hard-edged conservativism at home and his tough, unilateral foreign policy abroad. Bush's lack of credibility in staging the Iraqi invasion and his willingness to alienate longtime allies apparently meant nothing to a majority of American voters. The president views the outcome of the election as vindication of his policies. Now he can really get down to business. With the same political...
