A federal jury in Los Angeles ruled that Michael Jackson did not steal parts of his hits Thriller The Girl Is Mine and We Are the World from two songwriters Reynaud Jones and Robert Smith. The panel deliberated about three hours before delivering the verdict in the copyright infringement case. Jackson did not attend the trial, testifying in a videotaped deposition in Mexico City during his Dangerous tour. He later resumed treatment for drug addiction and returned to the United States on December 10.

Earliest Lincoln photo? 1843 daguerreotype proposed
New York reports a 34 by 3 inch oval daguerreotype claimed to show Abraham Lincoln at age 34, found in Pittsford New York. Photography historian Joseph Bruberger dates it to 1843 and critics note the image resembles Lincoln though expression conflicts with known portraits. Lincoln scholar Harold Holzer calls the piece uncanny but warns it may predate authentic Lincoln images.
