ET on Friday, TMZ fessed up: BEYONCE NOT AT DNC AFTER ALL, it acknowledged.
"To quote the great Beyoncé: We gotta lay our cards down, down, down ... we got this one wrong."
It's that in 2024, for much of the modern media world, a TMZ report is pretty close to accepted fact.
To me, TMZ's big breakthrough as a Real News Source was when it broke the news of Michael Jackson's death in 2009.
And if you still aren't convinced, see this tweet from CNN's Abby Phillip, who declared that "TMZ lost a lot of credibility tonight."
