Michael Jackson Dead at 50

[EricB]

wow, never saw this coming. He was only 50. What was cause of death? Medication overdose?

Various reports.

One says overdose of sleeping pills.

Another says heart attack.

[Thunder Dan]

I don't mean this to sound trite, but Farah Fawcett really died on the wrong day. Totally overlooked now that the King of Pop died on the same day

[Kori Ellis]

I was in high school (yeah I'm that old) when the Thriller video came out and I remember someone threw a big party and dozens of us all smashed into their living room to watch the video when it was released. It was such a huge event.

They are playing "Thriller" on MTV right now. It took Michael Jackson dying for MTV to play music again.

Ed Mcmahan died

I totally forgot about ED.

[Thunder Dan]

[LuvBones]

CNN is showing clips of Michael Jackson's videos.. bringing back memories.

, I remember when MTV refused to play any black artists until they finally played MJ. No joke.

[sonic21]

my sister was his biggest fan, i grew up listening his songs

[word]

I read they are not going to have a funeral but are simply moving his body to a wax museum.

You know those guys who have the job of pulling together the info for the media death retrospectives? I'm sure they were reasonably well-prepared for McMahon and Fawcett, but I bet they're busting ass now.
