It's been on MSNBC, CNN, and Fox News Channel since about 2:20pm ET.

2 dead. Many old buildings in Paso Robles, CA have collapsed.

Luckily, I did not feel this quake. Even though others in the San Fernando Valley did.

Only two people were killed; two women were crushed to death when the building they were in collasped..I live 300 hundred miles south from this area, so I did not feel the earthqake, but it was felt in Los Angeles and San Francisco.which are both 200 hundred miles North and South...

The numbers were very conflicting earlier... thanks for that. The report on NBC Nightly News at 6:30 ET had 4 dead.
