TMZ reports Michael Jackson dead

[ouch]

Other news stations are only reporting his hospitalization, but TMZ has broken the story that he has indeed passed away from cardiac failure.

A sad end to a sad, life. He had almost unliimited resources, yet was a tortured soul.

Someone just IMed me about this, wikipedia doesn't show a death date yet, and that's my top source. Wondering if anyone else has heard this, or seen on tv, etc. It's on FOX News right now, and probably other channels too.

Not yet, but it looks like he was for a bit and revived by medics. Last I saw on TV he is in far from great condition.

 

[waterbear]

Yep, just heard it on the local news that he passed.

RIGHT when i opened this thread my friend got a call from someone telling him about this.

What a legacy.

I would imagine that the more mainstream news organizations are going to dot evey "i" before confirming this, lest they be subject to ridicule.

Wkipedia? I get my news on B&B.

Oops.

I got hearsay, but from entertainment news media sources, that he is, indeed, dead. I still say its a wait and see.

I liked his early music( when I was way younger), but he was definitely a strange duck

Perfectly put. Very sad if this is true.

I'm with you. In any event, it's an enormous story.

Wow, the old thing about "celebrities" passing away in 3's has been proven yesterday and today.

May he find some solace now.

Lets not bury him yet, according to my local news the LA times is reporting he is comatose.

Now, the LA Times has just reported that Michael Jackson has died.

Agreed. I felt sorry for him in the later years as he seemed to have everything and nothing at the same time.
