New York City on the Brink: The Truth Behind "The Darkness"
With unemployment skyrocketing, the city facing a $5 billion gap, with fewer cops on the streets and more people needing to do whatever it takes to survive, New York City is a powder keg.

I've asked six of the most renowned crime fiction critics in the country to weigh in with their thoughts on the state of the crime novel. I hope you find their responses as interesting as I did.

The documentary "This Is It" is a chronicle of the rehearsals for Michael Jackson's comeback tour. The late King of Pop's fans should love this final homage to their idol.

"There's no simple answer to who John Lennon was. Sure, he was a great leader and a peacenik; on the other hand, he was an incredibly violent, narcissistic guy. That was the other side of him, and people just don't want to hear that."

Michael Jackson was a desperate man in pain and everyone threw stones at him. Now it's fashionable to be a fan.

Author Joseph Finder is a keeper; he writes such fast paced thrillers that the reader can barely keep up with the plot as it races from page to page. His new book, Vanished, is one of his best.

I'd like to thank Nancy Pelosi for nixing the resolution to honor Michael Jackson. It's not like Congress doesn't have anything to do. Health care, anyone?

Reporters keep complaining about the difficulty of getting information out of Iran, but communicating with Iran is far from a challenge. I frequently get through on the first try.

I personally know what it was like to receive the email that opened with "Congratulations" and invited me to retrieve a voucher good for two tickets to the Michael Jackson Memorial.

The Apollo Theater's memorial tribute to Michael Jackson might as well have been Mardi Gras in Harlem.

It's a paradoxical move for a man who claimed he never wanted to grow up, and yet moved to prove his manhood by grabbing his, well, manhood.

Perhaps not. Jackson's early passing is a perfect globalized mass media storm, as it combines Sex, Drugs, and Rock & Roll with a healthy dose of those two basic staples of the American story: Race & Money.

Audiences are far too splintered to fall in line -- and in love -- en masse with a single recording artist today the way they could for Michael Jackson in the eighties and nineties.

Michael Jackson's legacy will not only live on through his music and the people who love him, but also through the animals who love him.

I came in contact with the Jackson 5 in 1971. Berry Gordy insisted that we take this new group -- these kids out of Gary. But Rev. Jackson didn't want these "kids" interfering with the main show.

Jackson embodies what every music artist hopes to attain: outside-the-box creativity, longevity and global impact. Unfortunately, there will never be another like him.

Has nothing else happened on the planet? It's like Groundhog Day meets Sergeant Pepper, on a loop. It's everywhere. Michael Jackson is everywhere.

The passing of Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett has hit us near-baby boomers and full-on baby boomers with a rock and roll punch to the gut we weren't ready for.
