It was bound to happen. OK! magazine reportedly paid $500,000 for the rights to use the death photo of Michael Jackson on the cover of their latest issue entitled Michael Jackson World Exclusive The Last Photos on newsstands now.
The OK! Magazine Michael Jackson cover picture is all over the internet now, and I can only imagine how upsetting and heart-wrenching circulation of such photo would be for the Jackson family.

OK! Magazine Defends Michael Jackson Death Cover Photo
The OK Magazine Michael Jackson Cover Picture is creating a controversy. It upsets a lot of fans of the "King of Pop" and everyone who sees it. Allegedly, it is the final photo of Michael Jackson, dying or perhaps even dead.
They published the final photo of Michael Jackson en route to the hospital via ambulance. No one is sure whether Michael was alive or dead at that time, but that just makes it that more terrible.
According to MediaWeek.com a "knowledgeable source" says that the OK Magazine parent company in Great Britain, Northern & Shell paid roughly what converts to $500,000 in U.S. dollars for exclusive magazine rights to the photo in both the U.S. and U.K.
The cover is being used on both the U.S. and U.K. versions of OK! Magazine.
OK! Magazine claims the cover picture to be a Michael Jackson tribute, supposedly in an attempt to honor and memorialize the King of Pop for Jackson fans. The media circus surrounding Michael Jackson's death and upcoming funeral arrangements exemplifies how low photographers, television and magazine reporters will go to make a buck.
OK editorial director Sarah Ivens said in defense of the magazine's decision to run the image: "It's a photo that captures the surprise and the upset and the moment of this breaking news story. I hope the cover will provoke readers. It celebrated the man, but it also does expose that he was an eccentric character who lived a very controversial life."

Did the magazine go too far with this Michael Jackson cover?
It's not the first time that a magazine has done something like this, and in the culture we live in right now, it surely isn't going to be the last either. Is it necessary that the public see this Michael Jackson death photo? Or is this something that would have been better left unseen?
