Michael Jackson died. Newscasters are asking this morning, "Where we you when Michael Jackson died?" Like it made an impression on people like 9-11 did or something and you'd remember exactly what you were doing when you heard he was dead.

Do you remember what you were doing one year ago today when you heard Michael Jackson died? I don't. :\

I certainly don't. I think there are far, far more important things that the media should be focused on today.

I was at work... I remember getting the news of his death late[after 5:00pm EST] because everyone had left except for me.

Do you remember what you were doing one year ago today when you heard Michael Jackson died? I don't. :\

Mourning the death of Farrah Fawcett?

Actually, I have no idea what I was doing. It is not even close to 9/11 where I can tell you what I did almost every second of that day.

i was arguing with people that insisted he didnt die because "CNN hasn't reported it yet" ... despite the fact that TMZ confirmed it.

Yes.. TMZ is just as reliable, if not more so, when it comes to celebrity news.

No idea. But I'll bet that there are a large number of fans that DO know.

he was the most famous person on this planet. so it is kind of a big deal that he died.
