Michael Jackson

I remember where I was.

My mom was driving me home from camp and I turn on the radio. One of the first things I hear: "Rumor has it that Michael Jackson died." The other radio personality on whatever show it was, was in complete disbelief, as were we. The first guy continued, "yeah well, TMZ is reporting it, but it hasn't been confirmed by a reliable news source yet." Having never heard of TMZ before, we immediately started looking it up to see if it was credible. We monitored the web as news almost literally came up every 10 minutes. After a few hours some LA newspaper (LA times?) reported on it, and it was official.
