Ledger's Death Is A Laughing Matter
Filed under: Australiastic > Heath Ledger
This is reprehensible!
Fox News Talk Network host John Gibson announced the sad and tragic death of actor Heath Ledger on Tuesday by mocking him and making light of his untimely passing.
Disgusting!
We've been on this creep's show before and we will boycott his show in the future, unless he issues an apology.
Here's a rundown of what happened:
"Playing an audio clip of the iconic quote, 'I wish I knew how to quit you' from Ledger’s gay romance movie Brokeback Mountain, Gibson disdainfully quipped, 'Well, he found out how to quit you.' Laughing, Gibson then played another clip from Brokeback Mountain in which Ledger said, 'We’re dead,' followed by his own, mocking 'We’re dead' before playing the clip again."
Gibson called Ledger a "weirdo" with a "serious drug problem" and suggested that Ledger killed himself because he had "a serious position in the (stock) market" or perhaps "watched the Clinton-Obama debate last night. I think he was an Edwards guy, cause he saw his Edwards guy was just completely irrelevant."

OneRepublic sings, "It's too late to apologize." But it's not!
Say you're sorry, John Gibson, or you're no different than hatemonger Fred Phelps.
Update: Feel free to email john.gibson@foxnews.com and let him directly know your thoughts!
You can also email his show at myword@foxnews.com and the network at yourcomments@foxnews.com.
And, if you wanna email the CEO of Fox News, his info is roger.ailes@foxnews.com.
This narrow minded idiotic guy has no business being on TV, his hate mongering is as unacceptable as Don Imus and look where that got him, yet no media is reporting this freak–Boycott FOX–Flood their e-mails
john.gibson@foxnews.com
E-mail that piece of shit!! I already have
no opology will make that any better what a sick nasty and discusting human!!!!! fucking gross….. i will never watch or listen to him ever again that is the most unhumain thing no-matter who died who is he to say that? its guys like that who would like to see every black, gay, asian… whatever you get the point he prob. wears the white hood on his day's off the sick fuck!!!!
Wow, talk about low-class!!! Despicable!! On the contrary it's freedom of speech
what a disrespectful, son of a bitch. the saddest part is that he seemed to think he was funny the whole time. there was NOTHING funny about what he was saying! this man is so unbelievably ignorant. who let him on tv??? this just proves how awful foxnews is!
thats so wrong, he was such a talented young man and to die at such an age is horrible. But to have someone mock his talent,thats unforgivable. It is such a shock to my country (aust) to lose someone like him, someone who can never be replaced.
Hey John…the entire cast of every Outer Limits episode needs their hair back. Nothing like being flippant about someone's death when you lack talent yourself.
Fox News sucks ass!
Of screw off, Perez, you're not the only one who's allowed to offend the sh*t out of people.
You're the one that uses tragedies like this to boost advertising.
And who cares if you boycott his show? You think qny Fox viewers are going to follow your lead? You're cute sooooooommmmmetimes, and every now and then you get a hot scoop, but watch it with the god complex - you're just a fat hack with Paris Hilton's nasty tongue up your ass!
i like how he's mocking the girl for being sad. kinda like perez mocking travolta!!
Tom Lykis mocked him too.
He also said Perez Hilton is a disgusting vile loser and that everyone who reads your page is a big as loser as you.
Tom Lykis is an idiot!

Tom Lykis is an idiot!
what a douchbag, he is absolutely ridiculous.
Emails sent directly to him, he'll undoubtedly ignore.
Fox news can't ignore them when they're sent to them directly
yourcomments@foxnews.com
Lets not forget about your disrespect "Perez" and your pathetic "Heather" typo, if you agree bycott Perez unless he apologizes
that's so cruel & rude.
I hate it!!!!
Heath is a very talented actor
& he dont deserved that kind of ass hole's joke!
I can not believ someone would say that.. thats a horrible thing to say. and very disrespectful.. heath was young and talented and will be missed by many
fucking bastard. i hope his dick falls off.
perez who the fuck are you to judge what this asshole says?granted what he said was heartless bullshit but YOU of all people have no room to talk.you need to take a long hard look at yourself before judging other people.your a giant crotchwaffle my friend.do the world a favor and pull your lip over your head and swallow!!!!!

i hope that man dies a horribly painful and miserable death. how dare he dishonor anyone's memory. what a disgusting excuse for a human being. fox news needs to issue an apology immediately. this just really makes me sick to my stomach.
Why don't people call for his job? Why not? Why is it not OKAY to offend some people but ok to offend others. This guy should be FIRED. DISGUSTING
What a heartless piece of shit. Hopefully Fox will fire him a la Don Imus.
That is disgusting. I emailed him a piece of my mind already.
Disgusting. Irresponsible. Shameful. Hateful. Sad.
this didnt happen on fox news. it happened on his talk radio show.
what an asshole. how am i not surprised he works for fox??
i dont understand how someone could be so cruel and heartless.
what an ass hole
fox news is fucked up
Get these clowns off the air please
PEREZ FOR PREZ!!!!

Re: Jamie –
What's an AssHat?
hmm okay… perez is outraged because this Fox guy makes jokes at heath ledger's expense when just a day earlier, perez uses heath to make jokes about britney. i think it is all in POOR TASTE. Sorry, but I think it's a little late for Perez to try to show a heart. i guess it's okay for Perez to make terrible jokes but then he crucifies everyone else. Bottomline- Poor Heath. My thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family.
Republican, small minded prick! How cold and idiotic can one be?!
WHAT AN ASS! They made fun of Owen Wilson on Fox also when he tried to commit suicide. Screw Fox News and Fox as a whole!
What a fucking scumbag
what a dick!
OH MY GOD. WHAT A WAY TO MAKE CHRISTIANS LOOK BAD.
John Gibson is a complete waste of air! I cannot believe someone would be as cruel he was when speaking of Heath Ledger's death. Let's get one thing straight people!!!!! Let's stop acting like we know why he passed away! We don't! So, stop making judgements! Everyone has issues. I have been praying for Heath's family and friends. R.I.P.
PEREZ MADE A PRETTY SHITTY COMMENT YESTERDAY WITH HIS "EASILY OFFENDED" POST… BUT NOW HE IS UP ON HIS HIGH HORSE SAYING "SHAME ON YOU" TO THIS FOX GUY. BOTH OF THEM ARE TRASH.
I hope he gets the shit beat out of him. That's a terrible thing to say about the dead. This man sucks ass, just like Phelps.
this ungodly POS needs to be shot.
i hope he rots in hell, while Heath's smiling down on him from Heaven, and laughs the Joker's laugh at him.
what an asshole. why do good people always die first and the evil and abnoxious ones live forever?
By the way, I have NEVER heard of John Gibson! Obviously more people are mourning Heath's death than anyone ever would Gibson's! What a terrible excuse for a human.
Such a retarded asshole!! That is nothng to make fun of. What would HIS family say when someone on the "news" wpuld make fun about HIS passing away?! It´s just not right to do so!!
W R O N G. That is so wrong on so many different levels - show some respect… ever heard 'don't speak ill of the dead'? John Gibson, you sick bastard, leave the Heath alone, you're not funny, you're a disgusting douchebag. By mocking his death you're insulting him and his family alike.
How Dare You.
This is sick. He should be ashamed of himself how can some one be so disrespectful at a time such as this. Fox News should fire him for this horrible disrespect he has shwon to Mr. Ledger and his family. May God bless Heath Ledger's family and friends as they morn the loss of such a great talent and promising actor.
OMG!!! What a fucking douche bag!!! Who the fuck let this asshole say that on tv? Someone obviously contributed to it in order for him to play the clips from Broke Back Mountain! I thought it was disgusting before when ignorant people would mock that great movie…but this just takes the mother fucking cake!!! That man had a child…and this fucker goes on television and mocks him and his death!!! Perez thank you for protesting this show and network for allowing this ignorance!!! I hope someone takes a real stand and makes this prick pay!!!
With as much foul shit as you spew on a daily basis, to tell someone to apologize for saying something inappropriate is the height of hypocrisy.
FUCK that guy! he doesnt give a shit
Re: MAL –
perez made a joke out of it yesterday with him "easily offended" post. he is no better.
How strange this man is. Why would anyone bother to watch him anyway? He has no class and no taste for talent. A true bore……..
did you even listen to it though? yeah it's ignorant but it's getting blown out of proportion. when i first read what perez posted i was infuriated and then i listened to it and realized he distorted the story a great deal. John Gibson's not a hatemonger, he's just ignorant. Big difference. Get it right Perez. Just because you hate Republicans and Fox news doesn't mean you need to go off on a rage. Sigh. This is why I'm not even affiliated. I work for a very large national publication and we always talk about how entertaining but dumb Perez is haha.
like, for cereal… i cannot stand this bullshit. heath ledger was a talented star… but above all.. a HUMAN BEING. i'm disgusted with society. its a shame that genuinely good people like heath have to lose their life, when fucktards like that dude and the fucking church in kansaas still have their lives.
rip heath.
It doesn't surprise me that an ignorant asshole like John Gibson would make such a disrespectful and offensive comment, however, FOX needs to be the one to make a serious move to fire this pathetic fuck.
fuck that guy. such a fucking douchebag. would he want someone mocking him after his death. what a piece of shit. i hope he burns in hell with a hot poker up his ass. fucking assclown
" WHAT?! YOU'RE 28 YRS. OLD AND YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT DEATH?! GIVE ME A BREAK!"
well he died didnt he?…
idiot motherfucker.
BOYCOTT FOX NEWS SPONSORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He's as much of a pathetic Media Whore as that desperate whore of whores Fred Phelps and his toothless, brainless, evil, spawn of satan he calls a daughter. There, I feel better now…….Have a nice day
shut the front door.
oh no he didnt. that fucker.
Yea Perez, Heath Ledger's death is not a laughing matter. My exact thoughts yesterday when you made the "easily offended" post and made a joke about his death and britney spears. not cool at all. and here you are trying to act holier than thou. Shame on YOU!!!!!!!!
Don't be sorry P! If I see John Gibson on the street, I'm putting my boot so far up his azz he'll be able to taste the $22.99 I spent at Ross Dress For Less.
what a sick freak!!!!
Re: Corrine – [re=1343860]
No, slag, YOU fuck off….Perez has never made fun of someone's death.
that is fucking tragic what a fucking jackass. burn and rot in the hell you believe in because you're too retarded to understand science, john gibson.
I THINK THAT THIS GUY SHOULD GO TO HELL. HE IS MAKING FUN OF SOMEONE WHO JUST DIED. OH MY GOSH. I AM SERIOUSLY SOO DISGUSTED RIGHT NOW.
Re: kenned – Oh Kenned, what an idiot you are - I don't know what country you're from, but I'm Belgian-American and have lived all over the world and you're wrong, opinion-laced news (especially in newspapers, by the way), as well as spurious, unsourced news is WAY more common outside the US (especially in Europe) than it is here.
Not to mention the fact that the US is just about the only country in the world who's press isn't completely owned and controlled by its government.
Tool.
WOWWWW! OF ALL THAT IS FUCKED UP THAT IS THEE MOST FUCKED UP…SPEAKING OF WHICH, THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT HE MUST HAVE BEEN AT THE TIME HIS MOUTH DISREGARDED WHAT HIS BRAIN WAS TELLING HIM TO MAKE A STATEMENT SUCH AS THAT…..HE MUST HAVE BEEN SO HIGH HE FELT AS THOSE ANY ONE OF THOSE "IS THE CAMERA STILL ROLLING MOMENTS" COULD HAVE BEEN HIS LAST…..WHAT A WASTE OF A CONSCIENCE BECAUSE HE OBVIOUSLY ISNT USING HIS!!!!!!!!!
he wants attention. don't give it to him.
let's just throw him some rocks. LOL
What a loser…was this guy raised by wolves…anything for notoriety what a pig.
he is right , ledger the looser1
well, he's a fucker.
You know, if you look in Perez's archives under Heath Ledger (before his death) you see comments about Ledger being "a scrub" and the like. He never made mention of his talents as an actor or a father. Just an observation…..
E-mail John Gibson at: Myword@foxnews.com let him know what an insensitive prick he is!!!
What do you expect from the "Republican News Channel?". I think Gibson probably likes to suck on great big juicy cocks when he is not on the air , he probably had a butt-plug in his conservative ass the whole time this show was on. Yeah, he seems like a closet case, who goes to the mall to survey and use 'Glory holes', then goes to church after. He is probably sucking on Bill O'Reilly's cock as I type this. OOOOh, fuck Bill hard Johnny boy, make his ass pussy sing like a Republican birdy…………………

This makes me sick….

John Gibson needs to learn the difference between movies and reality. But I suppose it's a complement to heath's acting ability for people to think he was really a homosexual. Not that it would matter anyway.
John Gibson is a complete asshole…but stop blaming FOX news. He did that on his radio show, not on the network. I've been watching this story on Fox, and all the other anchors have been VERY respectful and many seem as sad as the rest of his fans. They said many times today that it looked like a horrible accident. I DID email Fox to demand he issue an apology though. What a fucking asshole!!! That's inappropriate even if someone does cause their own death…and Heath obviously didn't. RIP

What an ignorant son of a bitch.
Fuck that old bastard!! He needs to keep his mouth shut! This is a tragedy! Not a laughing matter!!
WHAT A FUCKING ASSHOLE!!!!!!!!!!! i dont get how some people r so shit in the head tht they think they have to say this stuff. i bet he thinks he is so funny, wtf is funny about someone losing thier life..or a two year old girl losing her dad? ASSHOLE. i hope when he loses someone importatnt to him… pepole mock that person aswell….so he knows what a jackass he reallyl is. what stupid fukcing idiots gave him his own show anyway? people with theis "humor" and "intellegence" should be kept in a place where they are locked away bythemselves. not even an apoligy would work, anyone can mutter the words im sorry and blame it on a bad day. oviouslly if he did this, he erally does not caer about what other people think! FUCK U JOE FUCKING GIBSON.
but who the fuck cares about this old mutherfucker anyway? i never even heard of him b4 this and i hope i never hear of him again!!
Not even funny,this is so horrible and I'm definitely upset about this.
this is way out of line.
did he think he was funny?
saying this shit?
what a judgemental jerk…sucks when other people are unhappy with there lives!
Dirt bag!!!
He should be forced to apologize by the network for such a careless comment. I wonder if he actually refers to himself as a journalist? Thoughts?
That is awful. I am so sick of people these days. Where has compassion gone? Why are people so messed up, mean and ugly these days? Yay Perez for feeling the way you do.. we will hold you to your word!
WHERE IS YOUR APOLOGY FOR THE "HEATHER TYPO". You removed the typo, but no apology. Was that because you realised that Heath Ledger has more fans than your stupid site? BOYCOTT PEREZ!
Unlike Heath Ledger, Perez he has no talent and has made a name for himself by being a leach off other's talents and misfortunes.
