Defending Brando on Jacko

Regarding Christie D’Zurilla’s online story “Marlon Brando Made Michael Jackson Cry. The Topic: Sexuality” [Aug. 29]: I was friends with Michael Jackson for over 27 years and my father adored him. I don’t appreciate my father’s words being twisted to imply that Michael hurt anyone. This is just someone’s cheap publicity stunt to promote their paid podcast. My father would never have been friends with Michael if he thought he was capable of doing harm to kids, and he would never imply anything negative about Michael. Miko Brando Beverly Hills
