No-holds-barred "Howard Stern Show" sidekick, Artie Lange, let loose some behind-the-scenes information on losing the lead role in "Brokeback Mountain" to Heath Ledger. Too soon? Not for Artie ...
Lange's rant occurred as the swelling comedian and "Madhouse" maestro Jeff Beacher were heading into JET Nightclub in Las Vegas.

152. Wow, what is wrong with you people? The first thing Artie says is that it is shame that it happened. He didn't say "I'm glad Heath died so that I can get parts." He was making a joke about the fact that he can get more parts (here is the joke people, he wasn't really auditioning for the same parts, nor will he be auditioning for more parts in the future). Its called sarcasm, at NO POINT in the clip did he make fun of Heath, he was making fun of himself!! Get grip on reality people!!

153. Plain and simple Pffft,
If you are angry at Mr. Lange because you think he made a joke about the DEAD HEATH LEDGER, then you have no ability to comprehend the English language, and are therefore stupid. The video is right here, QUOTE ONE THING BAD THAT HE SAID ABOUT HEATH LEDGER. Over 100 posts complaining that he was mean to Heath Ledger and not one person able to refer to a bad thing that he said about Heath Ledger. THere is a difference between fact and opinion. Not thinking that Artie Lange is funny is opinion. Stating that HE SAID NOTHING BAD ABOUT HEATH LEDGER IS FACT.
If I stated that one plus one equals two, I would be stating a FACT, and I would be correct.
If you stated that one plus one equals three, you would incorrect, and it would be my OPINION that you were of low intelligence as a result.
This is the exact same situation. I am simply saying that Artie Lange said nothing negative about the dearly departed Heath Ledger, and that is a FACT, and therefore it is my OPINION that anyone who is incapable of comprehending his statements is of low intellect.
All you have to do is quote one thing negative that Artie said about Heath in the video, and you have closed the case and shut me up, but the FACT remains that you CANNOT, because he DID NOT. Therefore, I have shut you up. Anything you say further without quoting a bad thing that Artie said about Heath is a further indication of or inability to comprehend. Luckily for you, you can enjoy your blissful ignorance while enjoying the anonymity that the internet provides.
In case your reading and listening comprehension is even lower than you have already exhibited, can you please do me the favor of quoting one of the negative things that Artie Lange said in the video, so that you can convert me to the legions of the ignorant and I can jump on your boo-hoo-hoo bandwagon. Thank You!

OMG, you ARE so smart! Hurling insults at people and basically calling them stupid just because they have a diffent take on something IS the way to get them to see things the way you do. Wow! You're right. Everyone is ignorant except you. No one can comprehend the spoken word except you. I mean, who cares about compassion for a family in mourning when you've got Artie Lange making jokes about their dead loved one? Gee, now it all makes sense. I can totally understand why you and Artie are on the same wavelength.

160. A rich, hollywood playboy O.D.-ing is NOT a tragedy. Darfur is a tragedy. Heath Ledger was not gay, but he sure liked having his head up some guy's ass.... his own. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH!
Hey Now!
