rnold Schwarzenegger issues statement

Sacramento, California - Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger issued a statement following the death of Michael Jackson:


“Today, the world has lost one of the most influential and iconic figures in the music industry. From his performances with the Jackson 5, to the premiere of the ‘moonwalk’ and ‘Thriller,’ Michael was a pop phenomenon who never stopped pushing the envelope of creativity. Though there were serious questions about his personal life, Michael was undoubtedly a great entertainer and his popularity spanned generations and the globe. Maria and I join all Californians in expressing our shock and sadness over his death and our hearts go out the Jackson family, Michael’s children and to his fans worldwide.”

Could have done without the 'serious questions' comment, although I suppose he is the Californian governor. Otherwise it's a very thoughtful statement. It's nice to see people paying their respects.
