I hope to not repeat a thread,but I haven't seen it.

Someone twitted this, saying it's a screen shot from TMZ. they said it was an article on TMZ and then it was taken down, saying they made a mistake and that it wasn't about Michael, but about Morgan Freeman. The screen shot is in such low quality- that you cannot see what's written,nor the date,nor anything- make me believe it's photoshopped, as anything can be in that article and with a photoshopped title. Did anyone catch this LIVE?

    It starts out with This is it! Michael Jackson is NOT DEAD TMZ......is going to Neverland and definitely not dead.

    Okay - if they are talking about Morgan Freeman - how can they get the whole story wrong? Makes me believe they just posted this too soon...?

    Here is a link to another site commenting about it.

    I could read almost the first line above the picture.
    It says:
    "This is It Michael Jackson is NOT DEAD - TMZ has ... the singer is alive to Neverland and ... not dead."

    Below the picture is harder to read for me.

    I think it's fake, but hope not off course.

    I think its "definitely not dead". I think its shopped!

    I looked at the Morgan Freeman article on TMZ about him being alive and it says another thing. I mean the screenshot of Michael-Not Dead has other formulation of the text. But I still think it's photoshopped, cause the screen shot is made small on purpose I think. Why so little if the one who did it meant no "harm"?

    I was curious if anyone saw it on TMZ. Cause for me it's photoshopped.

    I agree. If we could find the twitter that posted this we can track hopefully track down the truth. Anna - do you have a twitter link to where you found this?

    I think it's photo-shopped as well. Was this supposedly posted today?

    100% fake. It's so easy to create images like this, unfortunately...

    (I made this one a few months ago! <!-- s:lol: -->:lol:<!-- s:lol: --> <!-- s:ugeek: -->:ugeek:<!-- s:ugeek: --> )
  • For some odd reason, I believe that TMZ did post it by mistake. This is not photoshopped. No mistake,I think this is for us to be prepared for Michael come back. Again my opinion. Not everything is photoshopped or a lie. We have to have a little faith. Even if I am losing it. <!-- s:lol: -->:lol:<!-- s:lol: --> I want to give the benifit of a doubt. thanks and blessings
  • I would love to believe this, however, to me it looks like 777 comments were posted. I find this unbelievable if it was only posted for a very short time.......

    Unfortunately, I think it was photoshopped.

    Good catch, momof3kids! If it was only up for a short amount of time, it certainly would not have 777 comments. Also...there would definitely be more than one screen shot floating around. We BeLIEvers are on that site every day. Many more would have taken a screen shot. I'm calling BS on this!

    Don't people have anything better to do than to give people false hope?? Seriously! <!-- s:evil: -->:evil:<!-- s:evil: -->

    Firstly this article was allegedly posted on 17 Dec

    You can see that the Jew Not a Jew article is below.

    It also references these articles

    Neverland Ranch -- Returned to Former Glory
    Michael Jackson -- 'Off the Wall' Remaster In the Works

    In their favour it was taken when the article was less than a minute old, so it could have been up for a short minute and got seen <!-- s:D -->:D<!-- s:D -->

    Sorry, but I don't don't understand how it could have gotten 777 comments in such a short amount of time. For it to have gotten that many comments, I would think it would have been up for a lot longer and more people would have seen it.......

    Do you think it would have had 777 comments if it was only up for less than a minute? That seems highly unlikely. Plus, IF 777 did happen to be able to comment.....that means a LOT of people saw it, but we only have 1 screen shot? It doesn't add up in my opinion.

  • I wish i knew... TMZ have blocked the UK from viewing their site!

    That means i cant get onto TMZ so have to rely on you guys to keep me informed.

    How can web-sites block whole countries... surely thats not what the internet is all about????

    Considering we don't know who sent this, I wouldn't put this past TMZ doing this as a joke to see if anyone catches it, and they could easily change the comments to 777. Stranger things have happened. Knowing people will think it is photo-shopped will make it more fun for them.

    I believe it's photoshopped, so that's why I wanted to ask and see if anyone could catch that on TMZ, to see if it's indeed a photoshop.


    Here is where I found it. The link there is not available anymore so copy-paste it. This person found it, but someone else did it (the photoshop) I think.

    I am very tired of people (even believers, which is worse) playing with this. It's not a f***ing game and for me any joke on this regard makes me boil.
  • Very interesting ! And the 777 comments are funny....i don't know if it was a planed " clue " or photoshopped.
    So much comes and goes without any result... <!-- s:( -->:(<!-- s:( -->

    I wonder about TMZ...if i google it i became some less results and still the link to the first article when TMZ reported Michaels death....

    <!-- m -->http://www.google.de/search?sourceid=na ... E377&q=tmz<!-- m -->

    I can't remember this words in that very first article.....has there change it ? I can't find the first article with the discussion of the time of death....

    I think it's photoshopped, because the picture is too small to be a screenshot.
  • Ironic isn't it! the 7's are coming out. 3 in a row 777.. What do you think?
  • robdrobd Posts: 106
    Could it be that TMZ are preparing a web page for MJ's imminent return!?!

    We were told to look for clues from TMZ, Neverland and the Conrad Murray case ... guess what ... looks like TMZ just dropped a huge clue for us! Perhaps the Polish 'informer' is actually telling the truth? Neverland is ready for MJ's return, TMZ drop a huge clue, Murray's in court this week ... ! <!-- s:D -->:D<!-- s:D -->
