Michael Jackson, Jeff Goldblum, Harrison Ford – All dead, according to social media
We just told you what buzz did the death of Michael Jackson create on social media websites like Twitter, which was very good, because people were able to find out instantly. Now the bad part is that there are fake rumors of other celebrities’ death, like Harrison Ford or Jeff Goldblum. Those rumors are absolutely fake, but make Twitter users seem to have believed and there are also a lot of websites that and some newspapers that didn’t double check the news and said it’s true.
It’s clear that Twitter is no official source of news, Twitter users are not journalists and can’t be trusted 100%, but it seems like the websites and newspapers we were telling you earlier didn’t know this. Because of this, the craze about the two celebrities’ death has spread and now many other websites profit of this to gain some spare traffic.
Excepting the fact that people fell the victims of some fake rumors, it’s a bad situations for the celebrities to be considered dead. We should find a way to deal with those kind of issues.

Your journalistic style is difficult to follow. To be honest, it was difficult for me to find out who was dead and who was not from this article.
Jeff is not dead. I read an article saying the police in new zealand claims he’s alive. The hoax started in 1999 as they say. the hoax again in 2009 of june. this is ridiculous. I wouldn’t want to speak death on someone and it actually happens. now that would be bad….
lol: as if journalists can be trusted
Personally, I don’t think we should do anything to manage this. It’s situations like these that teach the general public how to properly apply skepticism. I think many people take for granted that they are receiving news from casual everyday people, and situations like these will help to remind them of that.
Of course then again, some people still explicitly believe anything they see on television news, perhaps I’m merely being optimistic.
On august 10, 1979 Yankee pop sensation Michael Jackson released his 5th music album named Off The Wall Michael Jackson. This album came after his critically acclaimed performance in the musical film The Wiz where Jackson had made comradeship with Quincy Jones who provided the music for the movie. Jones worked and co-produced the album along with Jackson. Jackson attempted to make this album sound one of the finest and different from “destiny” and so he joined hands with renowned music directors, singers and lyricists.
