Why do they call Michael Jackson jacko?

Answer 1

Because it rhymes with "Wacko"...

The tabloids called him wacko jacko because they did not understand him and wanted to call him bad names after press became bull poop about him. It was and is a very insulting name and they did it when they were saying that he was mental or crazy in bad ways ect. It happened a bit after the kid lied about him molesting him and got money for nothing from Jackson.

Being so American as they do everyone else jumped on the wagon to follow as sheep and talk badly of Jackson by calling him that name. Most of the people that use it are not even aware of what it means or why and that is sad. People sometimes just don't use their brains and can be so easy to believe bs as bush and his terriorists called the usa army have shown. USA media is a joke and sick people with no brains is all.
