LOS ANGELES — One site under consideration for a public Michael Jackson memorial is the Los Angeles Coliseum, where the Los Angeles Lakers held their championship celebration last month.
A City Hall official not authorized to speak publicly says representatives for the Jackson family have inquired about using the site.
The person stresses that talks were “completely preliminary” and a date for the event was not discussed.
The person adds: “It’s nothing set in stone — nothing even proposed. It was, ‘What would it look like is we did this?’”
