TMZ is known for its quick reporting on celebrity deaths and posted yesterday about the loss of one of their own, the site’s founder Jim Paratore. Paratore, who also created TMZ’s TV show and talk shows “Ellen” and “Rosie,” died at age 58 of a heart attack, the site said. He was on a bike trip in France. The brief story eulogizes Paratore, saying “Jim was a triple threat — an amazingly creative guy who never let convention get in the way of a good idea. He was also a great producer who could execute the ideas that were in his head. And he was the best salesman in the world — Jim could convince anyone of anything…. Everyone at TMZ was touched by Jim’s brilliance and the loss is great and painful.” -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "World News Now Discussion List" group.
