Michael Jackson’s Funeral – the Online Version
Filed under: Internet, Video, Lists
If you aren’t one of the thousands of fans who got passes to Michael Jackson’s funeral at the Staples Center, you can still watch it via several media outlets. If you are at home, get comfy on the couch and tune in to any major news station and you’ll find coverage but if a TV isn’t available, there are places online you can find some coverage.
Keep in mind, news of MJ’s death almost crashed the Internet itself so finding a site streaming the funeral doesn’t guarantee you’ll be able to see it but, here are some options to try. Some estimates are saying 70 million people will be watching online funeral coverage.
CNN has an entire Live page devoted to coverage of Michael Jackson’s funeral events. Funeral coverage has already started. If you can’t get in now, try for the replays at 4 pm and 7pm Eastern time.
CBS Evening News has all the news coverage of Jackson’s death so far in one place and presumably will be posting up funeral coverage as it happens.
There are numerous videos available on Hulu of Michael Jackson remembrance shows, interviews with those going to the funeral, details of funeral plans and more. It’s a good place to hang out if you need information but can’t get through to live coverage. As soon as live coverage is up, Hulu will be a good place to look for it.
WebTVHub has 15 options of where to watch the funeral online and even has a cell phone viewing link.
You can find USA Today coverage on LiveStream, as well as some smaller news outlets. There’s even an MJLive station, but so far, it is loading extremely slowly and it’s only a view of Havenhurst Avenue in Encino where Michael lived at some point in his youth.
If you want to remember Michael Jackson, without watching the funeral – or just see something kinda funny – check out the Eternal Moonwalk, where fans all over the world show off Jackson’s signature dance move.
If you’ve found a great place to watch, share it in the comments so everyone that wants a front row seat can have one.
