Michael Jackson 1958-2009

Browsing Livestation I see its also being reported on Al Jazeera:

I'd like to see a recording of this from the News Channel too if anyone recorded it.

He pretty much did the same on Sky News, quite clearly upset he said he refused to go on.

Can't believe the News, just a total shock.

I wonder if WNA will broadcast as usual on the News Channel?

I think that perhaps Chie was trying to indicate that the baby-dangling episode wasn't an appropriate sequence to show during such a short obituary sequence. It's hardly the defining aspect of Jackson's life.

itv news on again!

Another newsflash on ITV1 now, confirming Jackson's death.

EDIT: Back again in 30 minutes. Anyone think they'll keep Alastair on for the News at 5:30?

Any previews of the paper front pages yet? I guess it came in too late for the first editions, but should make later editions, especially if they "hold the front page".

Browsing the main paper websites most seem to cover it, except the Daily Star and The Sun.

itv news - back in 30 mins

And another one at 12:45am apparently.

Must be planning on running an update in every break.

yeah I think so - his best to deal with major stories!
