KCAL, NY times, everyone is reporting it now.

CNN still says he is in a coma but all the local Los Angeles outlets say he is gone.

Cardiac arrest.

Waiting for more info.

Everybody in our office was already going nuts about this. Somebody was even cranking Thriller.

I'm not sure what's going on.

Farrah Fawcett Died earlier today too.

TMZ is the only source.

Wow, I am seeing from multiple sources that he at least went to the hospital. Not looking good at all.

Truly sad. He is a great artist, I enjoy his music. Let him be remembered for his music and not his personal struggles! Only 50, 1 month younger then my dad in fact.

That's jacked up.

Truly awful news. For all his personal struggles, one of the greatest talents of our generation.

He's out of our lives.

RIP Michael.
