I’m still in shock after I got the report and stared at if for a while. A helicopter crash. Crazy!

people speculating.....its just going to happen in social media......

I read that ABC reported it (not on social media, on a news site), but I heard them say the opposite on CBS. Anyway, hopefully not.

Terrible, terrible, terrible news. RIP Kobe. Was amazing watching his career. True competitor. Just a sad day for those that grew up watching him. Life is so fragile and we tend to forget that tomorrow is never promised. Hope you all take time to tell your loved ones that you love them. I'd even like to take this time to thank you all for the joy you bring me reading and debating our favorite team. Go hug your kids, kiss your wife and call your parents. We may never get another chance. Life can be cruel like that. Rest in peace Kobe, and to all you fans out there god bless you.

Social media is one thing, it's something different when actual media outlets are reporting things.

I heard from ABC as well. They seem to be the source...not social media. If they're just being influenced by social media, would be completely irresponsible.

5 people on board.....if you include a pilot it would be impossible for all his daughters to be there.....

in a rush to get breaking news out, journalism goes by the wayside....might want to confirm facts first
Was twitter speculation not real journalism. And funny, ESPN waited to confirm the facts before posting on their site and people were bitching because they took too long.... damned if you do, damned if you don’t.
