    Pretty much every major broadcaster worldwide has it unrestricted online. Facebook have linked to CNN and ABC

    He sure was - but I didn't expect that! Fair play to him. He probably only wanted to tell him about his new business anyway! At least Brooke Sheils seems genuinely upset

    He didn't quite blank him, but kept it to a minimum.

    Magic Johnson blanked him properly.

    Smokey made a great speech. I feel sorry for his poor children on stage.
    Janet looks in bits.

    I just can't watch the TV3 coverage, I can't stand that presenter, think his name is Ray. Any time I see him on TV he's talking over people to get his own opinion across, he just infuriates me. :mad:

    I think it was somewhat in jest to be honest, upthedub.

    A bit of an over-reaction I think.

    Your reply was much more offensive.

    No need for personal abuse. I wasn't trolling, but yes, I was speaking partly in jest. However, you would think some of the adults would've told them it's not respectful to chew gum at a funeral, no matter how they're related to the dead person.

    Only saw bits but surely they could have had a few token white people in it? A bit weird this celebrating his blackness when he turned himself into a white man with three snow white kids.
