Jackson Estate 'Pleased' Discovery Pulled Doc
32 minutes ago by TMZ Staff
The co-executors of Michael Jackson's estate think Discovery Channel did the right thing when they yanked a documentary from their UK schedule that was to feature a reenactment of MJ's autopsy.
A rep for John Branca and John McClain tells TMZ, "The co-executors of the Estate of Michael Jackson are pleased that Discovery Channel made the correct decision in choosing to cancel this exploitative program."
The co-executors went on to say they feel Michael's fans played a large role in Discovery's decision, saying, "While Discovery cited legal proceedings and our request as the reasons for its decision, none of this would have happened had it not been for the incredible passion displayed by countless Michael Jackson fans worldwide who knew they stood as one and that their voices could not be ignored."
As for any future plans to air the show, Branca and McClain said, "We are hopeful that this show will never run in any market in the future."

"VICTORY!"a fine example of how the "power of LOVE" works! <!-- s:D -->:D<!-- s:D -->
this stuff about oh it was because of fans
no there just using it this is just to keep mj's name out in the public
people never listen to us fans
u know how many petitions i signed during that trial
no one did anything about anything we had a problem with
no one 'real ever does"
They want to say it was us fans because it works but this show never was.
Perhaps this was a "practice run" and next time we will again act as "one voice".....for someone/something even more important? I think a lesson was learned here....
Blessings in the New Year! <!-- s

It reads like they discovered something about Murray and pulled him- or I'm just translating how I want too. lol
That's what I thought of this afternoon. I saw part of the "Gone Too Soon" documentary was on Much Music and they showed Michael's innocence statement, where he talks about being forced to submit to a de-humanizing and humiliating examination - of course referring to the photos taken of his private area.
The whole notion of an autopsy re-enactment is about as de-humanizing as it gets. I really think Michael himself was behind this, he has to show how horrifically he's been treated before and make people notice how wrong it is.
