TMZ reported today that at 12:21pm a 911 call was placed at the home of Michael Jackson.
Reports say that he suffered an MI (Myocardial Infarction = Cardiac Arrest)
It was reported that the paramedics performed CPR en route to the hospital.
Latest report says he's not looking good.
Hope we don't lose another superstar today.
David Carradine RIP
Farrah Fawcett RIP
Michael Jackson - prayin for you

Anyone know what caused his Cardiac Arrest?
Was he... beating it too hard?
(God, I'm such a horrible person... hopefully he can come out of it... even though some sources are reporting that he has passed on already)

And just for the record a myocardial infarction aka a heart attack does not mean that you go into cardiac arrest. Many people suffer MIs daily and do not arrest. I see it every day in my profession.
Unfortunately Michael Jackson was not one of them. May he rest in peace.
S.F.W.

La Times and BBC confirming he died. Arrived at hospital in deep coma, and then passed away.
A sad day indeed.

Angela, I have to ask. What is the survival rate of someone being revived after going into Cardiac Arrest.

It honestly varies. So many factors have to be considered: what caused the arrest, how healthy the patient was prior to arrest, how fast CPR was initiated etc. But if I had to put a number on it from past experience alone working in ICU over 50% live after intubation and heavy cardiac medication.

Well CNN says "L.A. Times: Michael Jackson Dies"... I don't think they know for sure yet...
The media outlets that jumped the gun on this are gonna be humiliated if he's still alive... They're already having AUCTIONS for MJ memorabilia, wtf!!! lol

Yah. LA Times, Associated Press... more and more people are confirming it.

Well, all the reports are based on the LA Times report that he was dead. Which apparently came from 'city and law enforcement sources'.

There hasn't actually been an official announcement from the doctors or a representative of Michael Jackson yet. It's all based on the TMZ and the LA Times reports.

so why is the media saying hes dead??

06-25-2009, 07:19 PM
TMZ is hahahaha... and we all know how credible TMZ is.
Larger media outlets are being responsible and respectful, and quoting "reports say" (Like CNN right now) No one has confirmation, the media is jumping the gun too quickly.
ElegantGremlin
06-25-2009, 07:21 PM
so why is the media saying hes dead??
Because TMZ and the LA Times (who even have a source, apparently) have reported it. A lot of the articles on it have '.. as reported by the LA Times.' in them. And because no one has reported the contrary, that's the latest information they have.

RIP MJ.
I grew up listening to MJ's Thriller Album played in my dad's car. Great memories.
May he RIP. So sad. Another day the music died.
