NBC was going to do a tribute to Farrah Fawcett tonight, bet that gets pre-empted now.
That's probably true, altbough they really won't be able to fill it in with the professional obituary/tribute that Jackson will get.
Personally, I feel sorry for Fawcett, and I think the world might be a better place without MJ.
That's just cold, heartless me, and I will not argue with anyone who will miss his musical talent, which was unquestionable.
But this does not rise to even Buddy Holly or Jim Croce status in terms of being cut down in a career. The best stuff Jackson did was at least 20 years ago, and there was nothing new on the horizon.
