Just pray that the reports of his death are greatly exaggerated.

Hopefully he's teaching God some moves already.

I love that game.

I'm still trying to hold onto that last thread of hope that it's an exaggeration.

Gah, this is maddening...the LA Times says he's in a coma.
“Michael Jackson is in a coma and his family is arriving at his bedside, a law enforcement source told The Times.”

UPDATE...he's gone.
[Updated at 3:15 p.m.: Pop star Michael Jackson was pronounced dead by doctors this afternoon after arriving at a hospital in a deep coma, city and law enforcement sources told The Times.

What the f*ck? Someone needs to get this story straight, because I just heard he turned into a robot and flew away!

Sounds like he's gone...

I almost hope it's just conjecture.

I'm not even a fan, but hearing about him and Farrah both got me.

Fox and CNN both have finally reported coma....so who knows.

ABC and NBC News says he's dead...

WHICH IS IT!!!?? Stop screwing with people.

I have a feeling Japan's going to shut down today.

I hope he's not actually dead. It would suck to see him end on such a series of low notes.

CNN is now saying he died...or that they heard he died.

CNN says that The Times and CBs say he's gone, they have yet to confirm.

FOX is reporting that the Times and the AP are reporting he's died.

I heard on my local news that he died, but they didn't say anything about a coma. They said he had a heart attack. Well, they say bad things happen in threes, and this is totally true. We've lost Ed, Farrah, and now Michael. My condolences and thoughts go out to his family and friends. He will be missed greatly. He was an awesome performer.

I'm pretty shocked. I liked him back in the early 80s
