Branca and two of the other members of Jackson&#8217;s estate legal team, Howard Weitzman and <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.creativespikedigital.com\/lftc\/attorneys\/bryan-j-freedman\/\">Bryan Freedman<\/a>, were the the key participants in the panel discussion titled &#8220;Trial by Media: Guilty Until Proven Innocent&#8221; presented at Harvard\u2019s Institute of Politics in Cambridge, Massachusetts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The attorneys had harsh words for the documentary and Reed, telling an audience of approximately 20 they were determined to defend and rebuild Jackson&#8217;s reputation in the wake of Leaving Neverland, which contained disturbing and graphic first-person accounts of Jackson&#8217;s alleged pedophilia but did not give the estate a chance to respond to these accusations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With litigation already underway against HBO &#8212; in February, the estate filed a $100-million lawsuit against the pay-cable network alleging it had violated a non-disparagement clause contained in a 1992 agreement to premiere Jackson&#8217;s concert film, Live in Bucharest: The Dangerous Tour &#8212; Branca said he and the estate&#8217;s lawyers are now considering legal action directly against Reed, although he was not specific about what grounds he had for litigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In response to Branca&#8217;s comments, an HBO spokesperson said, &#8220;Dan Reed is a proven, award-winning filmmaker and we have full confidence in his film.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Branca, 68, who knew Jackson personally and even once had the singer serve as his best man, the documentary hit below the belt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Those people made up a goddamn story because they wanted money and we will not allow that to go unchecked,&#8221; Branca told Billboard after the event. &#8220;It&#8217;s that simple.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said the estate was blindsided by the film because it was done &#8220;in complete secrecy.&#8221; He said neither HBO nor Reed gave the estate an opportunity to clear up inaccuracies or to present Jackson&#8217;s side of events involving Wade Robson and James Safechuck. For Branca, Freedman and Weitzman, Jackson&#8217;s treatment in the media has been one-sided and made possible by the fact that there is no defamation protection for the deceased.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Branca said he believes the law surrounding defamation should be reevaluated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Because the laws of defamation are what they are, there is nothing we can do or say,&#8221; Branca said. &#8220;The man can be damaged, his kids can be hurt and theoretically nothing can be done. I&#8217;m going to suggest the law should be changed to protect the deceased at least for a period of time. Because it&#8217;s about the truth, it&#8217;s about fairness, and it&#8217;s about balance.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Dan Reed&#8217;s documentary is replete with inaccuracies, lies and stuff they knew not to be true,&#8221; Branca told Billboard. &#8220;They should be ashamed of themselves.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Branca said he understands that people would say he is biased because he has a financial interest in Jackson&#8217;s estate. Over the 10 years that have passed since Jackson&#8217;s death in 2009, the estate&#8217;s wealth has grown exponentially under Branca&#8217;s leadership. Billboard calculates that Jackson&#8217;s music catalog alone is now worth upwards of $570 million, and as co-executor Branca receives a 10 percent commission on new entertainment revenues generated for the estate. &#8220;It&#8217;s a fact I won&#8217;t deny,&#8221; Branca said, but he added that his fight to clear Jackson&#8217;s name is more about fairness than money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I knew the man, I had my feelings about the man, and I don&#8217;t like what has happened where you can&#8217;t hear the other side of the story,&#8221; Branca said during the panel presentation. &#8220;There are real world implications and repercussions when somebody says something like was said [in Leaving Neverland].&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Branca said the estate was on an upward trajectory prior to the documentary and has taken a hit. He added, though, that streaming sales are still up from last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hopefully the real truth will come out, other facts will come out and people will pay attention to both sides of the story,&#8221; said Branca. &#8220;From the point of view of society, I want to make it so people feel comfortable saying, &#8216;I love Michael&#8217;s music.'&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Michael,&#8221; Branca said to Billboard, &#8220;is too big to fail.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Those people made up a goddamn story because they wanted money and we will not allow that to go unchecked,&#8221;
