Summary

Maureen Callahan is joined by journalist and former long-time Jackson family friend Stacy Brown to take a deep dive into the Jackson family, including a recent "60 Minutes Australia" piece on Michael Jackson's relationship with the Cascio family, who have come forward with new accusations against him, La Toya's now-buried memoir that detailed the physical and sexual abuse that the Jackson children suffered at the hands of Joe Jackson, and revelations from Stacy's conversations with Lisa Marie Presley. Then Maureen pivots to Stephen Colbert and his inappropriate comments about the countless women he is attracted to, how these egregious admissions are disrespectful to his wife, and why no one will miss him after he exits late night next week. Maureen rounds out the show with Amanda Knox's relentless efforts to remain in the spotlight, including her upcoming performance at this year's Fringe Festival, where she will debut a stand-up comedy routine that is tastelessly centered on her 2007 murder conviction of her roommate, Meredith Kercher.
