Michael Jackson Last Pic is Totally Sick

11:00 pm, June 26th, 2009

(OK!)

(OK!)

Gossip Cop understands arresting photos, but shame on the British edition of OK! and numerous other outlets around the world for broadcasting, printing and posting a picture of a seemingly lifeless Michael Jackson being worked on by paramedics.

It’s true we all look for exclusives, but this is an exclusive no one should want, let alone put out there for the world to see. It’s morbid and wrong. We defy anyone to find a legitimate reason to show a photograph of a dead celebrity (or a dead anyone). And to try to justify it when it’s nothing more than a cheap attempt to sell magazines, boost ratings, or increase traffic is nothing more than — as we say here — a cop out.

This is an offense Gossip Cop cannot overlook. If you’re aggravated by this assault to decency, file your complaint here, and join us in asking other media outlets to pull down this picture!
