TMZ has been contacted by a rep from Heath's family. The cops told the family Heath's death was accidental and there is no evidence to support the buzz that he may have committed suicide.
They are particularly distraught over media reports that he may have taken his own life. The family says he was not that kind of person.
As we just reported, Heath was ill with pneumonia when he died.
1. Some of you are either really young or very cold and callous. A man is dead and a child will grow up without father. Speculating over his cause of death is very heartless and pointless. Debating on what really killed him won't bring him back, it just trivializes his short and wonderful life. No one really knows what happened except for Heath Ledger and he can't tell us what really happened. I hope people are as cold and insensitive at your passing.

2. If a TMZ employee dies, will he/she get the same press? For Christ's sake, let it be.
You will be missed Heath.

4. ALTHOUGH I AM INVOLVED IN THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY I HAVE QUIT PURCHASING ANY GOSSIP RAGS INCLUDING PEOPLE MAGAZINE UNLESS THERE IS AN ARTICLE ABOUT A CLIENT.
I ALSO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE TMZ COVERAGE ON THIS SITUATION.
THE PAPARAZZI SHOULD AND I DO THINK EVENTUALLY WILL BE MADE ILLEGAL IN THE MANNER THAT THEY HAVE NO BOUNDARIES.
THIS IS A NEW LOW WHEN THE BEREFT ARE NOT LEFT IN PEACE.
IF THIS IS THE AMERICAN "PUBLIC RIGHT TO KNOW" IT IS THE PERVERSION OF THAT.
MY FATHER FOUGHT IN WW2 FOR FREEDOM. NOT THIS FREEDOM. THIS IS INVASION OF PRIVACY AT ITS MOST DAMNED.
SHAME ON YOU, HARVEY. HOW MUCH MONEY IS ENOUGH MONEY?
YOU NEED TO DRAW BOUNDARIES AND MAKE A STAND AND CLASS UP YOUR COVERAGE.
ENOUGH.

5. I'm so sorry for the loss of Heath to his family and especially to his daughter.....Matilda, I'm sure you'll grow up to know what a wonderful man your daddy was and I'm sure he'll always be watching over you!!! As for the media maybe they should give it a rest for a while and let his family grieve with the repect they deserve...Suicide or not he was a person whose life ended to soon.. The powers that be will be holding a special place for Heath as his family always will in their hearts...Your life was too short and you will surely be missed, thanks for the 100% you always gave....You will definately be one of the brightest stars in the sky!!!

6. Hey retards....what do you bet that Mary Kate Olsen and Heath Ledger had the same DRUG DEALER!...the "Masseuse"...and the maid changing a light bulb....yeah right. It is Anna Nicole all over again. Greedy drug dealers, celebs with too much money and too much time on their hands, themselves clannish when it comes to sharing drugs and dealers, no judgement or common sense at all ....then the cover-up by law enforcement saying there is no suspicion of Mary Kate! She was called twice before the police were called and then once after because "she was on direct dial". Uh Huh. Another group of druggie celebs getting preferential treatment and a dead body whose cause of death is not known. The United States does not protect their citizens. Whether you like it on not, we are ruled by corrupt "leaders". Jeeeeeeeeeesh

7. Heath Ledger's death is a greatly unplanned tragedy. I enjoyed his movies, and was looking forward to more. Though whatever anyone may say, I do not believe he committed suicide. He had planned too far ahead, and had a gorgeous 2 year old girl, Matilda, that he loved and cared for to have committed suicide. He was a fun-loving man, and will be greatly missed in both his movies and in real-life.

12. TMZ where good taste went to die and a quick bung in the right place means someone makes a buck off the dead. Tacky, classless and the journalist talent of a steaming turd.
