Has CNN confirmed it yet?

Has CNN confirmed it yet? is a meme on Current Events. It is used jokingly as a response to news, especially news about celebrity deaths.

Origin
Immediately following reports of Michael Jackson's death on June 25, 2009 by entertainment news site TMZ, CEtizens argued over whether the King of Pop was actually dead. While more and more major news sites began to report the same thing, CNN maintained that Jackson's death was unconfirmed. Users skeptical about Jackson's death constantly pointed to CNN to salvage some hope, thus causing the fad to explode into eventual modern usage.

Later, CNN finally did confirm the news.
