what about Farrah?

Tweet

well, I was just curious.... Farrah Fawcett also died the day Michael Jackson died, and during this time, I saw a short snippet on the news regarding her death, but when Michael Jackson died, it gained a lot of airtime over shadowing the death of Farrah by a long long long shot. I mean they are both entertainers and controversial in their own ways. Although, Farrah's death was a long time coming what with her battle with cancer and Jackson's death still shrouded in mystery till now.... I mean, what about her? Doesn't she somehow 'deserve' the same treatment as Michael? Why did Michael get more airtime than her when they are both celebrity icons and both influenced many people when they were alive?
