Television coverage of Pope's funeral?
Has anyone heard if any/all of the major networks are covering the Pope's funeral and when they plan to show it? We don't have cable or satelite and with the funeral occurring at 3 AM here in the midwest, I'm not sure we'll be up to getting up to see if it's on, no matter how much I long to watch it. I guess I'm hoping that at least one of the major networks will decide to air it later in the day. I've done some cursory checking on the Internet and tv listings but don't see anything, not even on our local PBS channel. Has anyone heard anything about this?
God bless, Jen

Re: Television coverage of Pope's funeral?
I posted in another post that all the major US networks are covering it live. I am not sure if any will be rebroadcasting the entire funeral, but I am sure they will be showing clips throughout the day. EWTN will be rebraodcasting it, like the pp mentioned, if you have that. YOu can also see EWTN on the internet. Someone posted the link earlier - or go to the website www.etwn.com and you should be able to find a link.

Sorry - I transposed the letters in the link above. (It is hard to type while nursing my baby  )
Here is the actual link someone posted before.

All I know is that they are anticipating over 2 billion people worldwide watching it.
