U.S. Representative Peter King (R-NY) wants the media to "knock out the psycho-babble" and drop the coverage surrounding the death and funeral of Michael Jackson.

But he said more.

"He was a child molester. He was a pedophile. And to be giving this much coverage to him day in and day out, what does it say about us as a country?"

Read more and watch the video of Rep. King's comments here.

We need your opinion. Answer this quick poll, we will tabulate the results, and show them on today's Sanchez show at 3PM ET on CNN.

More and more Americans now favor a more relaxed attitude toward use of recreational marijuana. In fact, three major U.S. polling firms, Rasmussen, CBS News, and Zogby all found more than 40 percent of Americans polled favored legalizing pot.

Here's what California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger says on the subject: "I think we should study very carefully on what other countries are doing that have legalized marijuana."

So, what do you think? Take our UNSCIENTIFIC poll here, leave a comment, and we'll reveal the results on the air.

It's a case we've talked about all week: a little Texas girl writes in a letter to Santa that she wishes a relative would stop molesting her and her sister.

Well, a man is now arrested, and charged with multiple counts of continuous sexual abuse of a young child.

Scroll down to see some interviews we've done on the case so far, but we also did some research and were surprised at what we learned.

What percentage of child abuse victims know their abusers? Ask yourself that question and choose an answer below. And leave a comment if you like.

I'll reveal the correct answer and the institute reporting it today on the newscast (3-4 PM EST).
