CoWorker just linked me to tmz.com apparently Michael Jackson was taken to a hospital in LA with Cardiac Arrest. Words from the family members indicate that things dont look good. Im still looking for this to be picked up by the major news sites but it is appearing on a lot of local news websites.

Edit: Its on Yahoo now

    i never know how to feel about michael jackson, to be honest

    it's never been conclusively proven the dude's a pedophile

    just alleged and stuff

    sure, he settled out of court with his accusers but a settlement doesn't mean guilt, only that you want them to shut the fuck up

    so, if he is a pedophile, fuck him the bastard he can rot in hell

    but if he isn't, he's just sort of a sad lonely weirdo that the world has shit upon and that's pretty sad.

    The Michael Jackson I grew up with dances in pyramids with pharaohs. Or yelling at his sister in space. Or his "comeback" in 99 or so where he dances 30s gangsters to death.


    Oh woe is me.

    Is that considered "major news?"

    It's major news to their audience, absolutely, which is who they cater to.

    I mean, most Americans would probably think Michael Jackson having a heart attack is somewhat big news. It might not be 'important' or 'major' news...but like I said, they cater to their audience.

    Besides, 24/7 news cycle, etc., etc.

    So do a Google news search for North Korea and read one of the 3,000 articles written on the topic today.

    Sheesh, when are people going to realize that the mainstream media doesn't set the agenda anymore. You do.
