Presley Gerber's Death: Tragic Details Insiders Just Revealed | TMZ Live Ep 9/28/26
TMZ posted the September 28 episode of TMZ Live under the title "Presley Gerber's Death: Tragic Details Insiders Just Revealed," and in under half a day it had drawn close to 95,000 views. That puts it on course for about twelve times what a new TMZ upload usually gathers on its first day.
The episode is moving against the rest of the channel. TMZ as a whole is drawing well under half its normal daily views, and most of the large news channels around it are also in a softer stretch. The New York Times is the exception, running above its usual pace.
TMZ Live is the outlet's regular talk-and-news show. This episode is built around Presley Gerber's death, and its title says it brings details from insiders. The report is also drawing people to the comments, with a couple of hundred posted beside nearly a thousand likes.
