fans paid tribute to the legend. fans honored his grave in glendale and celebrated with memorials. one year after his death, where does michael s legacy stack up in music history? a music critic and harriet cole is here with us. the question to you will be to harriet first. what do you think the public perception is of michael jackson a year later and has it changed? i think it s changed quite a bit. people thought about the controversy. it was almost like he was holding his head in shame in a sense because he never got out from underneath the cloud of child molestation trial, even though he was acquitted. but now, even children are discovering his music. new fans are discovering it. i think that at the memorial, there was a cleansing.
