: I flipped around the dial a bit yesterday and today listening to radio's coverage of Michael Jackson.

: WBBM, not surprisingly, was first out of the gate on the news angle, citing both the TMZ web site and the Los Angeles Times. When TMZ reported Jackson had died, WBBM continued to say TMZ was their only source until other sources had confirmed it. Later last night, WBBM simulcasted the instant documentary airing on CBS network television.

I too found it wierd how EVERYONE cited solely TMZ and the New York Times for most of the night. When did TMZ become a respectable news operation with more sources than a major network?
