Joe Jackson: Not a big fan of Arnie Klein.

Not only was Michael Jackson a homosexual, Klein says, he had no problem with people knowing ... which seems unlikely, as he shrouded himself in secrecy.

In any case, never one to miss a quotable opportunity, Joe Jackson went on, "He's a doctor and knows better than to break his vows against a patient."
