I wasn't really sure where to put this or if this exactly true but Pitchfork via TMZ reports that Michael Jackson is dead. pitchfork.com/news/35744-michael-jackson-has-heart-attack/ I don't even really know what to say about this except wow I can't believe it RIP Michael. Feel free to move the thread mods if this is in the wrong place.

Seriously, if anyone can post a news item that's not sourced by TMZ, I'll believe that he has died. Even that Post article is sourced by TMZ by way of the LA Times.
EDIT: OK, USA Today isn't... so I believe it... and I'm devastated.
Wow. Thriller was the first album I ever asked for as a kid. Kind of more shocked and affected then I would have expected to be. As was said before, the man was a genius, and like many geniuses was deeply troubled. Condolences to the entire Jackson family.

R.I.P.
My dad just told me about this...it was on the t.v. The man has been through a lot in his life, while it seems like he hadn't been here long enough. I can't believe it...
I'm actually pretty sad about this. He may have been a pedophile, but goddamn it, the man was a musical genius. My mom actually knew a bit him back in the day, when he was part of the Jackson 5. She worked in a two story building in NYC where the only people there were her company and Michael Jackson's manager.

I'm sorry for the negativity people, but Michael Jackson was the worst possible kind of person. He was a child molester. I will not mourn for him.
yea, i mean it's sad when anyone dies. but people saying things like this is a horrible day, is taking it a little far. he was great in the past, but hasn't been in a long time. plus he was bat shit crazy and most likely a pedophile. so i'm not exactly shedding tears.
