This Halloweeen finds Michael Jackson still trying to ward off the goblins of his child-abuse scandal. His latest wolfsbane is the 35-minute special-effects extravaganza “Ghosts.
” But some critics who have previewed the 35-minute film say Jackson’s self-serving allegory backfires. Jackson, of course, is still fuming about allegations made several years ago that he molested a 13-year-old boy (a lawsuit against him was settled out of court). In his new movie, Jackson plays a genial but misunderstood ghost who lives in a haunted mansion.

Michael Bloomberg Shares Spotlight at Lorne Michaels’ Lincoln Center Tribune
Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg found more than a little encouragement for his potential run for president Thursday night when he attended Lincoln Center’s American Songbook tribute to Lorne Michaels.
Bloomberg nearly stole the show from the honoree at the after-party at Alice Tully Hall, when high-wattage fans including Steve Martin urged him to mount a run for the White House. Bloomberg confirmed earlier this month that he was considering jumping in to the 2016 presidential race as an independent.
Bloomberg wouldn’t say any more about where his deliberations stand or what timetable he’s set for making a decision, nor would he expand on his motivation for launching a third-party candidacy. When asked variations on all of those questions by Variety, Bloomberg had an answer ready. “No. I can confirm I am not going to see the Knicks tomorrow,” he said.
A second try at the will-you-or-won’t-you question elicited a slightly longer but still elusive answer.
“The discourse (in politics) is not very significant for the country,” he said. “We have to talk about the real issues. The world is complex. The world is changing.
