Michael Jackson, the aptly named "King of Pop", was taken to the UCLA Medical Center today and pronounced dead at approximately 3 p.m. PT.  Los Angeles paramedics arrived at Jackson's Bel-Air home at 12:30 p.m. after Michael was found not breathing and in a coma by a family doctor.  Paramedics discovered Jackson in full cardiac arrest and performed CPR as they traveled to the hospital.
