61. To all you people laying blame on TMZ for showing these pictures, you are all to blame. You're the hypocrites who visit this site and then blame them for chasing celebs. If you didn't visit the site or watch the show, it would go away. You're the hypocrites who keep them in business so stop blaming them.

64. I'm not critisizing TMZ. I leave it to the hypocrites. I have no problem with what they are doing.

66. in tis tragic time let's all keep a cool head. people will forever act immature about certain events and when they do we should ignore them and not give them the satisfaction of responding to their dirty & nasty barb. RIP Heath!

did anyone see the link to a site that paid tribute to Heath earlier today? i thought it was a fitting tribute especially with the sing by michelle Mclaughkin(?). i would really appreciate a link to that site. if u know it please post it. thanks

67. Celebs are nothing but media whores who try and get as much camera time as they can. That's why they got in the business. But as soon as the paps get to them, they get angry. They are just as hypocrytical as the people who come here and complain about the paps.

68. I never bother writing comments on TMZ or other similar celebrity gossip sites, but this post has compelled me to say: "TMZ, you make me SICK."

I refuse to click play for this video. This is disgusting filth, and I am disheartened and saddened to see such dispicable measures taken by TMZ to garner attention.

69. Yes, this is extremely sad and shocking.

In addition to that, I would just like to comment on all the media coverage on this subject.

I was absolutely DISGUSTED to turn on the television this afternoon and see all major news networks actually airing footage of Heath Ledger's body being removed, in a body bag, from his hotel. Seriously people, IS NOTHING SACRED ANYMORE?! Not only is that greatly disturbing, but also to see hundreds of paparazzi desperately attempting to cover such a morbid scene and other random bystanders digging for their camera phones ;it absolutely pains me and makes me ashamed to live in a country that allows behavior like this and lacks any compassion whatsoever for a human being. Yes, I said a HUMAN BEING. Not a movie star - not a heartthrob. A real person. A son and a father. A person whose loved ones will have to turn on the television and see how that tragic scene turned into a tourist attraction. With pathetic onlookers snapping photos like children at a zoo. When will a line be drawn???

Shame on all of you.

70. To Coroner: Who are you taking to the junior high prom? Nobody? No big surprise. To everyone who thinks that calling someone gay is an insult: grow up.

72. Omg this is going to be on FOREVER
I mean remember Anna nicole? a chopper shot down in iraq and ALL the news could do was show the clip of anna nicoles body being rolled out more than a month after it happened

My condolences to the family

I think TMZ had a right to show this its expected with the dead of every star i guess... anna nicole

75. I don't blame TMZ for showing the body being moved. Sadly, it's something the public wants to see. It's so sad that he passed. He was an amazing actor and will be missed.
