Looking at it all from a reasonably safe distance, it's amusing. Especially when contrasted with John Lydon's recent outburst on British TV.

Jackson bares a breast on live primetime TV and there's an official investigation, a court case, demands for an apology and vast quantities of media coverage.

Meanwhile, also on live primetime TV, Lydon turns to the camera and describes the viewers as "fucking cunts". It gets about 24 hours of media coverage and an "oops" from the company responsible for the show who (then add a 30 second delay to subsequent live shows). Less than 100 complaints were received.

Hmm. :)
