(KTLA)
Some shocking video making the rounds purports to show Michael Jackson, alive and well, exiting an L.A. coroner’s van.
The clip was posted to Live Leak by a user named ‘LosAngeles Cot24’ and then picked up by “The Syndicate,” a division of media giant The Tribune Company. It was then sent out to Tribune properties including the highly respected Chicago Tribune and television station KTLA in Los Angeles, which prominently posted the video on their websites.
And while they’ve reported daily for two months on the King of Pop’s passing, these legitimate news organizations are sinking to sensationalism.
Shawn Wasson, who works for The Tribune, explained, “I scour for the best video of the day,” and has seen other “life after death” videos of Jackson, but thought that this one was worthy of posting because he felt “it’s a conversation starter.”
Let’s end this conversation. Michael Jackson is dead. The Tribune and KTLA both KNOW that, and it’s wrong for credible media outlets to stir the pot.

soooooo ridiculous… they should be so ashamed
Not only is it wrong but it is also disgusting. These media outlets need to have respect not only for the dead, but for those who are left behind. MJ has 3 young children who are and will be grieving for their father for a very long time. Do those poor babies really need the media smearing their father by claiming he faked his death? Perhaps they should consider how they would feel if it were their family, their friend and loved one who passed away only to have horrid stories such as this spread around.
It is just some video from when he was alive sneaking around like he usually do to get away from stalkers…
