Morre Michael Jackson
Michael Jackson Is Dead
More Reaction 7:06 p.m. “I am absolutely devastated at this tragic and unexpected news,” the music producer Quincy Jones said in a statement read by MSNBC. Mr. Jones said Mr. Jackson “had it all — talent, grace, professionalism and dedication.”
John Landis, who directed Mr. Jackson’s most memorable music video, “Thriller,” said in a statement to the Los Angeles Times that Mr. Jackson “was an extraordinary talent and a truly great international star.”
For an international perspective on Mr. Jackson’s life and death, the BBC is broadcasting a special report.
Our colleague Steve Reddicliffe says that the music channel is now playing the music videos for “Beat It” and “Thriller,” accompanied by a “breaking news” graphic on the screen about the singer’s death.
Reaction 6:37 p.m. Television news images showed large crowds gathering outside the UCLA Medical Center. “People are already showing up in costume, believe it or not,” said a Fox News correspondent, Trace Gallagher, comparing it to the circus he witnessed during a trial involving Mr. Jackson.
More Reports 6:29 p.m. “A lot will be said about Michael Jackson as we learn more about this story,” Brian Williams said on the “NBC Nightly News.”
The reports of Mr. Jackson’s death ricocheted around the world with remarkable speed.
Even though Mr. Jackson has sold millions of albums around the world — “Thriller,” has been certified 28 times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America — his eccentric lifestyle took a severe financial toll. In 1987 Mr. Jackson paid about $17 million for a 2,600-acre ranch in Los Olivos, Calif., 125 miles northwest of Los Angeles. Calling it Neverland, he outfitted the property with amusement-park rides, a zoo and a 50-seat theater, at a cost of $35 million, according to reports, and the ranch became his sanctum.
But Neverland, and Mr. Jackson’s lifestyle, were expensive to maintain. A forensic accountant who testified at Mr. Jackson’s molestation trial in 2005 said that Mr. Jackson’s annual budget in 1999 included $7.5 million for personal expenses and $5 million to maintain Neverland.
CBS and ABC are also reporting the news, standing on their own reporting now.
L.A. Times Reports Jackson Is Dead 6:24 p.m. The newspaper cited “city and law enforcement sources.” The networks and CNN are also broadcasting the news, citing the Times story.
Reports: Jackson in a Coma 6:15 p.m. Several news organizations including the Los Angeles Times reported that Mr. Jackson “is in a coma.” The newspaper attributed the news to one law enforcement source. CNN is also citing “multiple sources” as saying that Mr. Jackson is in a coma.
Updated 6:11 p.m. LOS ANGELES – An unconscious Michael Jackson was rushed to UCLA Medical Center on Thursday afternoon by paramedics who performed C.P.R., according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.
reports indicated cardiac arrest, but a hospital spokeswoman was not immediately available for comment. Mr. Jackson, 50, has been renting a mansion in the Bel Air neighborhood, a short distance from the hospital, and rehearsing for a series of 50 sold-out shows in London.

Mendes: Congresso não pode reverter queda do diploma de jornalismo
O presidente do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF), ministro Gilmar Mendes, disse nesta terça-feira (23/6) que não existe possibilidade de o Congresso Nacional reverter a decisão da Corte que determinou o fim da obrigatoriedade do diploma para o exercício da profissão de jornalista. Em visita a Belo Horizonte, Mendes foi alvo de mais um protesto, desta vez, organizado pelo Sindicato dos Jornalistas Profissionais de Minas Gerais. Para o presidente do STF, a decisão vai repercutir em outras profissões. "Não há possibilidade do Congresso regular isso, porque a matéria decorre de uma interpretação do texto constitucional. Não há solução para isso. Na verdade, esta é uma decisão que vai repercutir inclusive sobre outras profissões. Em verdade, a regra da profissão regulamentada é excepcional no mundo todo e também no modelo brasileiro", afirmou.

Texas Financier and Antiguan Official Charged With Fraud
By CLIFFORD KRAUSS
Published: June 19, 2009
Several executives of Mr. Stanford firm, the Stanford Financial Group, as well as the Antiguan regulator, Leroy King, faced civil and criminal charges on Friday, accused of cheating investors out of $7 billion.
The indictment, returned in Houston on Thursday and unsealed Friday morning, charges the five with one count of conspiracy to commit mail, wire and securities fraud; seven counts of wire fraud; 10 counts of mail fraud; and one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering. Mr. Stanford, Ms. Pendergest-Holt and Mr. King also face a charge of conspiracy to obstruct an S.E.C. inquiry. In addition, the Securities and Exchange Commission amended an earlier civil suit to include Mr. King, Mr. Kuhrt and Mr. Lopez.
Prosecutors have accused Mr. King of accepting more than $100,000 in bribes to help Mr. Stanford continue his fraud, which involved billions of dollars of certificates of deposit issued by Stanford International Bank on Antigua. The instruments paid unusually high returns and were marketed around the world, particularly in the United States and Latin America.

Tobacco regulation Is expected to face a free-speech challenge
Opponents of the new strictures, including the Association of National Advertisers and the American Civil Liberties Union, predict that federal courts will throw out the new marketing restrictions.
Commercial free speech is not an absolute right, legal experts say. There are clear limits, for instance, on false advertising and on promotion of illegal activity. The issue grows more complicated if the advertising is both truthful and concerns a legal activity, like smoking by adults.
Tobacco companies would also be prohibited from sponsoring sporting or cultural events or giving awayor caps. Any form of audio advertising would be limited to words without music. R.J. Reynolds has not decided on legal challenges, spokeswoman Maura Payne said.
The Supreme Court found it to be an unconstitutional limit of the First Amendment right to free speech in part because it was simply too broad.
Recount Offer Fails to Quell Political Tumult in Iran
Reporters Without Borders said that security services had moved into some newspaper offices to censor content and that four pro-reform newspapers have been closed or prevented from criticizing the official election results.
In Yekaterinburg, Russia, for a summit meeting of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, Mr. Ahmadinejad did not mention the Iranian election, but gave a speech in which he referred to regional problems, describing Iraq, Afghanistan and Palestine as occupied and unstable.
He added: “The current political and economic order is approaching the end of its mastery of the world.
