go ahead shove it down my throat

I'm so completely sick of this world. Ofcourse you know what this is about. Another Hollywood tragedy turned gossip war and the media is right there to shove it down our throats.

Heath Ledger died today, not the actor and the hearthrob youre thinking of....no the FATHER, the brother, the son, the guy who had his life ahead of him... Its so sad that this family has to not only cope with the fact their loved one wont be around anymore...but see him plastered all over their screens with the 'what ifs' and the rumors surrounding his death.

WOW not even two hours went by and every gossip magazine had the timeline of his life mapped out. What the fuck is going on today?

Im so over this shit, screw the media...why the did I ever wanted to work in this field is beyond me...what is our obsession? Why do we care? I really don't want to hear another word about it...just do not speak to me about this subject whatsoever unless you want to hear an earful.

The man is dead...there is a little girl who gets to grow up watching movies to try to "get to know her father"...who will read stories about how he killed himself, who was there, what made him depressed etc etc.

SO lets start somewhere....stop clicking on PerezHilton and dont buy the weekly gossip magazines when they come out tomorrow.
honestly all we are doing is feuling the fire... so sad.

All I want to do is cry....


[side note] I have had a picture up on my computer at work for two months of Heath Ledger. People come by my desk everyday and see it, never say anything. Today my boss who has sat at my desk hundreds of times asked me about the picture...he asked if I was a HL fan (yes) he also asked if I ever met him(yes). Probably about half an hour later...we find out he died. How very very odd...out of all days for someone to approach me about my picture.
