  8. Until a press release comes from the family, I don't believe he is dead. TMZ is a tabloid reporting organization and it seems several news sources are quoting what TMZ has said. I don't believe it till it comes from the Jackson Family.

  10. SMM, I wondered about that.....but if it was ABC news, as opposed to tabloid stuff, I guess I'd tend to believe it more.....I don't know. I am not seeing anything on the news as of yet....

  13. Yep, I am going on what I heard on the local ABC news station, but have not had any confirmation from anywhere else.

  17. Who will care for his 3 children? The woman who was his "incubator" never had anything to do with them and did not want to. I suppose the grandparents?

    I grew up listening to Michael--even through his strangeness he was talented. Prayers for the repose of his soul and peace and comfort to his family.

  21. Yup, I just heard it confirmed, too! Cripes!

  22. He really is dead; I searched my local Fox and ABC affiliates plus cnn.com.

  23. Have not heard the details...was it a heart attack??????? Were drugs involved, I wonder?

    Posted 8 months ago by katthays #

  24. They are all saying he is dead...Associated Press, CNN, ABC, etc....still no word from the family.

  25. He was different but you have to agree, he was a genius! Growing up in Indiana we always had stuff about the Jacksons on TV, in the paper, etc.

  26. *tears* wow. I am in total shock. Despite his legal issues, in my eyes, he was the greatest entertainer of all time. And just the other day, I was watching clips of the Jacksons Variety show.

    RIP Michael.

    *tears* this is affecting me really hard.

  27. Wow..this one came out of left field...although they were reporting a while ago that he was "ill" but it was never confirmed...I am sure we will hear more as the night progresses.

  28. The part of me that idolized the entertainer is in shock--the part of me that believed he was a molester, is in relief--it is really, really hard to reconcile those two sides of myself.

  29. E news is saying it was a massive heart attack.....when our son was small, he LOVED Michael Jackson...Thriller and Bad.

  30. Still waiting to hear confirmation from the family. Over 1700 articles out on the web.
