Michael Jackson heart problem

[ShangriLaTroubl]

I was just re-reading the beginning of this thread, and it reminded me of an article I recently read after Jackson's passing. It was about how the web/blogs broke the news of Jackson's death, but traditional media CONFIRMED IT.

It's kind of an interesting point where we are at today in terms of the media. TMZ was the first to break the news of MJ's death, and while some took it as fact, others questioned it until the LA Times, CNN, NBC, etc. "confirmed it" (even in the beginning of this thread). The "traditional" media were behind the curve, some still saying he was "in a coma" etc.
