The BBC recently apologized for an interview with Princess Diana that was broadcast in 1995. An investigation showed that reporter Martin Bashir used unethical methods to get Lady Diana to agree to the interview.
The same reporter also made the TV documentary Living with Michael Jackson in 2003. There, the star admits that he shared a bed with young boys, but maintains that nothing sexual happened.
Now Michal Jackson's nephew, Taj Jackson, wants an investigation into the film.
In the TV show Good morning britain, Taj Jackson said that the reporter took advantage of Michael Jackson's confidence and made him open up to him, and then, in the editing room, chop Michael Jackson in the back.
"Saw him as a friend"
- It's the betrayal aspect of it, someone you let into your life and you trust.
My uncle felt safe with him and was sure that he would portray him in the right light.
My uncle looked at him as a friend, says Taj Jackson in the TV show.
The television company ITV, which was behind the documentary, denies the accusations and believes that the interviews took place in agreement with Michael Jackson.
