MJ memorial

trying to watch the MJ memorial is like watching a slow motion train wreck. Its sad and compelling at the same time. I would hazazrd a guess that if there was 24 hours news coverage in 1977 they would have done this for Elvis, but the 3 networks covering this is almost unprecedented for a celebrity. I have seen this for funerals of Reagan and Ford and somewhat for Nixon but I am amazed at how they are using this to prop up their ratings. Can't wait to see the casket and if they open it for the memorial.
