Entertainment Tonight and The Insider have changed their min - aka caved under pressure.

The celeb news shows have now decided NOT to broadcast the shocking drug video of Heath Ledger they purchased for several hundred thousand dollars.

"Out of respect for HEATH LEDGER's family, "Entertainment Tonight" and "The Insider" have decided not to run the Heath Ledger video which has been circulating in the world media," they said in a statement.

They forgot to mention that they already aired a long teaser of the drug vid on their Wednesday night show and millions of people saw bits of the footage as a result.

    36. RIP Heath says – reply to this


      36

      according to a New Zealand newspaper they paid $200,000 for it. It was shot at an after party without Heath's knowledge. I think airing a vid like this can only hurt his loved ones. There's no reason for anyone to say anything about his alledged drug use at this point. It's all moot. He's dead. Let's all mourn him and honor him by going to see "The Dark Knight" when it comes out.

      67

      All that was on it was him sitting at a table which was covered in drugs and admitting to smoking pot, WOW, who hasnt had a joint before, probably realised that they made a mountain out of a molehill and it wasnt worth showing as it didnt even show him using drugs, just let it be and let his family grieve without accusations being thrown around when he cant defend himself

      Good on them for not airing it, i'm sure the money they spent on the footage was pocket change for them. I wouldn't be surprised if they air it eventually, just not while everything is so fresh with it all.

      They shouldn't show it. I think it is disgusting that they would even consider it. He's dead. What is it going to do except cause further pain for his family and friends? They might as well just go spit on his grave too.

    77. Serious says – reply to this


      77

      People should just leave him alone!!! He cant defend himself now that he is dead!! Why didint that video come out when he was ALIVE????It was two years ago, they had plenty of time to come out with it!!! Everybody should remember that he was a great actor and whatever he did in his personal life is none of OUR CONCERNS!!!!

      81

      It was on tonight but more to be shown later - but I'm confused I didn't see him actually DO any drugs himself. And all he said was that he USED to smoke alot of pot…If that is the cruxt of this video the show should release a statement indicating that b/c right now the implication is left out there they he did something more salacious - if he did it is noone's business but if he didn't it is really inappropriate to leave that stigma. I mean being in a room with it doesn't mean someone was a drug addict - heck even if he said he used to party hard it still doesn't make him a former drug addict - so I am really confused as to what was so extraordinary about this video unless I missed something. Did he actually partake in any drug use in the video or was he just there? Big difference wrspct his reputation.

      EVENTHOUGH I ALSO LOVE THE GOSSIP, WE REALLY

      NEED TO TAKE A STEP BACK AND NOT FORGET THAT

      CELEB'S ARE PEOPLE TOO. I CAN'T IMAGINE NOT BEING

      ABLE TO GO OUTSIDE OF MY HOUSE AND HAVE TONS

      OF PEOPLE FOLLOWING ME AND TAKING PICTURES OF

      MYSELF AND MY KIDS !! I KNOW I WOULD GO POSTAL.

      I GUESS THAT'S A GOOD THING I'M NOT FAMOUS !!!

      ET. IS DOING THE RIGHT THING. LET'S HOPE MORE

      MORE MEDIA FOLLOWS………….

      86

      It's disgusting how the media are trampling all over his memory with salacious stories of his alleged drug problems. It would be one thing if he were still alive, but he can't even defend himself. This video is supposed to be from 2006, where has it been all this time? Why is this all surfacing now? Shame on ET and everyone else for trying to capitalize on Heath's death.

      92

      Thank you! I was very upset when I found out they were going to show the video. The world remembers Heath as a respected actor. There is no reason for us to ruin our memory of Heath with a video that just does not matter now. Heath has lead his life very respectively. I believe Heath's death should be treated differently from others. He is an acclaimed actor who stayed out of the tabloids. With the cancellation of this video I believe the media is turning around, having a little bit of heart, and I hope this isn't just a fluke, it would be wonderful if the media showed more respect in these situations.

      I'm glad they did, from what I saw, it was stupid. Poor man isn't even buried and they are making his life a profit. A friend of mine, her cousin, was friends with Heath. She's a publicist in NY/LA.. and she said the same thing everyone else is saying. She was around him enough to know he freaked out over drugs if they were around him. She was not his publicist. Just a friend of his.

      Leave the guy alone.

      All I can say is they didn't back down bcz of decency.they decided they'd got enough mileage out of the "trailer". They prolly didn't have much more. Ledger sitting around talking about his kid. They didn't show him using drugs. Plus it is an old tape. Done several years ago. Not recent. Must have been some other famous people at that party who went batshit.

      By doing this, more people will be interested in watching it.
      Wouldn't be surprised if a bootleg copy starts gets posted in a few hours time.

      So who legally threatened ET. The studio? the publicists?
      They probably threatened ET that if the Ledger video airs, the other stars in their stable will refuse to appear on the program. That's how it works in LaLaLand. Everybody covers up for everybody else.
