my email to the assholes
Dear Fox News folks,
I know what you're thinking: Another tired comment about Gibson's tirade on Heath Ledger's death. Well, its true, this is another one, sorry. But listen: I rarely issue emails like this one to a tv station because I feel it would just fuel the fire, but come on! Making fun of the death of a citizen on national television, for no reason at all, is beyond me. Death is a serious thing. When my father died at 53, it was devastating to me and my family. I could not imagine having some stranger spout mocking remarks about his death and life accomplishments. To those people reading this who may have had a close relative die recently: put yourself in this position. I didn't know Heath Ledger, I don't know what he died of, all I know is that he had a young child, he was quite young himself, and as far as we know, he was a decent citizen who worked for his money and was did not engage in public displays of frivolity (ie: spears et al). He was certainly talented and inspiring to a lot of people, which is quite an accomplishment in our jaded society. Making fun of his untimely death is deplorable, and I surely hope that any TRUE adult reading this message will understand what I am saying.
While I understand it's Mr. Gibson's job to be "controversial" or whatever his rating gathering agenda is comprised of, there is something to be said about being a decent person. The network obviously has not required him to make an apology about his statements. Frankly, apologies are only valid if they're honestly delivered, and we know that this would not be the case. So really, don't bother. I can only muse over the sad reality of today: How sad that Paris Hilton is a celebrity for no reason at all. How sad that a nationwide news network would put this man in front of a camera and insist this is valid news reporting.
I was raised to believe that we should look up to the men and women delivering news and commenting on the state of our nation. Maybe that was so 5 minutes ago.
We were better 6 minutes ago.
Sincerely,
Daniel Vasquez
