Aretha Franklins Funeral is Friday at 10a

The Associated Press will livestream her invite-only funeral service Friday starting at 10 AM ET, with news outlets around the globe expected to pick up the coverage. Local Detroit TV stations will have live coverage, and CNN and Fox News have said they will air portions of the service from the Motor City’s Greater Grace Temple, the same church where Franklin sang at Rosa Parks’ funeral in 2005.

Bounce also will televise the service, and its Scripps sibling will livestream it.
