RIP Michael Jackson

MJ died today. The rest of the usual HN fodder will still be around tomorrow. The chances of him dying 2 days in a row are slim.

I guess there are enough pop singers to die in a row to keep HN cluttered with news about them for quite a long time.

I expect MJ's death will open the flood gates for 'copy cat' pop singer deaths...

It's just hand-wavy to say that any exception leads to a slippery slope or opens the flood gates.

I don't discount the importance of it. I am just questioning the relevance of it.
