To the Editor:

Does Al Sharpton have an agent, or what? He seems to get his picture in the paper (June 30) almost as much as Jesse Jackson!

If he wants to be there to console Michael Jackson's family, great -- he says he's a reverend, after all. I just resent the press constantly featuring Sharpton. He has nothing to do with the Jackson family. Why does the press constantly endorse him?

If you want have a picture of Michael Jackson's father (standing next to Sharpton in the photo) on the front page, have one without Sharpton. We don't need to see the "wannabe"!
