Reader comment on item: Islamists Respond to Michael Jackson

This change reflects the rumors since in December 2003, a month after his arrest on child-molestation charges, that Jackson had converted to Islam, rumors with more than a pinch of substance to them

Rumour is one, thing, fact another. Had he converted to Islam we would likely have seen some sign of that in the very public memorial service.
