If you weren’t one of the few to get your hands on a ticket voucher for the Michael Jackson memorial service, you may be wondering where to watch coverage of the event.  Several news outlets and social networking sites will provide continuous live streams throughout the day.  The actual memorial will begin at 10:00 AM Pacific Time at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

CBS News will be broadcasting the Michael Jackson through their partnership with Ustream and is also allowing discussions of the event through their Twitter page.

Hulu will be starting its live feeds at 9:30 AM while CNN and Facebook have partnered to provide online coverage of the memorial (you can see the embedded player below).  CNN will also have several hosts covering the event online, including Anderson Cooper and Larry King.

MySpace is allowing users to gain access to a live feed provided by AEG, the owner of the Staples Center and the producer of the now canceled comeback tour for Michael Jackson.

The Fox News and ABC News websites will also be providing commentary and live footage today. 

Over 1.6 million people registered for the event, but less than 20,000 ticket vouchers were given out.  Performers expected to appear at the event include Lionel Richie, Smokey Robinson, and Mariah Carey.
