Michael Jackson: Funeral Probably Wont Tour Well

Yesterday's coverage of the Jackson memorial truly blew my mind. As a member of the media, I am completely aware to the extent which we feast upon these historical gems in order to make a quick buck, but it's truly mind boggling to me how much the memorial took over the news coverage that should have been devoted to more weighty topics. I couldn't find a single thing on the news about North Korea or Iran, but I was able to see a repeat of Paris Jackson weeping into the microphone over her father's untimely, albeit long expected, death.
