Like Munchkin03 said, I think the concept of needing to "upgrade" the internet just for an out of the blue event is silly. The reason people hit the net so hard is because things were being reported before they were confirmed.

In case of a true national emergency, like 9/11, the Emergency Alert System still exists on TV and radio. Michael's death is not an emergency.

Yes it was....how are we to survive without hearing about the latest celeb antics?

If my iPhone cannot tell me what's going on in Hollywood within seconds after it happens...then we are all going to DIE.

Radio?

What's that?
