A radio report said that TMZ's servers crashed a couple of times and there have been access problems due to heavy traffic.
I never thought a gossip site would ever get this much credit and acclaim.

I was watching some of the national news reports and they credited TMZ with breaking the MJ story and reporting his passing first.

TMZ has been around long enough to develop solid sources not just around LA but around the world. You got to give Harvey Levin a lot of credit.

I know. They were the first to report he was rushed to the hospital and the first to report about his death.

I don't know how they do it, but they always seem to be right.

I don't know why people still doubt TMZ. They obviously have paid sources in hospitals and police stations especially in LA. When I was watching BBC World
even they said TMZ were credible and if the BBC says so, it is so.

Perez is probably just jealous that all of these celebrity deaths will be kicking him off of Us Weekly and People.

I am sorry when TMZ says it I believe it. I mean if we are going off Perez...Fidel Castro is playing Weekend at Bernies.

Isn't TMZ owned by Time Warner? It helps to have one of biggest media companies in the world as a parent company.

I am never going back on Perez's site. When the news first broke of MJs cardiac arrest, Perez tried to be witty and horrible saying that he was faking it
to get out of his tour. And when word got out he had died, the article mysteriously vanished. You just don't pull that crap over someone's else.

Perez will do something to get the attention back. Perhaps he will get beaten up by Britney Spears.
