          Yes I thought that headline was very misleading:

          LONDON - Michael Jackson, a leading world beer critic who praised the brews of Belgium and acknowledged he would never be as famous as “that Michael Jackson,” has died. He was 65.

          Not the singer as anyone might assume.

                Can someone please explain to me how the title was "misleading"? I didn't give any inaccurate info or deceive you. I thought the story about the beer guy was interesting. Please let me know where I misled you in the thread?

                  Umm, because everyone knows who Michael Jackson the singer is, while pretty much no one knew who Michael Jackson the beer guy was, and when you see "Michael Jackson" it's fairly logical to assume it's the singer.

                  No huge deal, though. I'm sure you didn't think about it or mean to mislead anyone.

                    I really didn't mean any deception Joe. I just thought the whole job as a beer critic was pretty dang cool.

                      Well, it wouldn't surprise me to hear Jacko had died. Aside from his questionable mental state, he sure doesn't look healthy.

                        I actually do know this Michael Jackson. I luuuuuuuuv beer! (((BTW, Belgian brands are my fav, too))). That said, I, too, thought this about the singer. And I'm sitting in a news room!
