Michael Jackson estate slams ABC TV special on his last days

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Michael Jackson estate is objecting to an ABC TV special airing Thursday on the end of the life of the late King of Pop.

The statement calls the special an unauthorized attempt to exploit Jackson without respect for his legacy or his children.

It says it understands the show other intellectual property without permission, including music, photos and artwork. Read more on NewsOK.com
