Let's Watch Whitney's Funeral!

You're right. This is exciting!

I don't know if you've heard, but Whitney Houston died. And she died just the way she wanted. Naked and high as Hell (Maybe not. But probably).  And because her family is aching for the privacy you'd expect a grieving family would want, it's gonna be a private service. Well - except for the fact that it's going to be broadcast on the internet...

 Houston's publicist, Kristen Foster, announced Wednesday that The Associated Press will be the only video camera allowed inside at Saturday's funeral in Newark. The AP will stream the service on http://livestream.com/aplive. The event also will be available to broadcasters via satellite.
It's probably for the best that there'll only be one camera allowed inside during the service. Four, or five cameras, plus boom mics, a stage director, union gaffers and electricians hanging around with their butt cracks hanging out might be tacky. Who wants a tacky funeral? Besides,  if it's on the internet you better believe people expect things to be classy. Not like all those other websites you visit you pervert.
