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.
Fucking Republicans.
They're all like that. They all talk like that, but they think even worse.
He's a complete fucking asshole. seriously. my dad is gay…and the people that have said the hurtful things….it HURTS. I really have feeling against this guy. He's going to get his. That is all i have.
that is disgusting. heath was a very talented man who deserves respect!
This guy needs to be fired STAT. What a fucking shithead. I hope he burns in hell.

IT'S TOO LATE FOR THAT OLD FUCKER TO SAY SORRY AND IF HE DID IT'S ONLY TO SAVE HIS OLD WRINKLED WHITE ASS. I HOPE HE DIES NEXT SO I CAN FUCKIN LAUGH. SOMEONE SHOULD SHOOT HIM IN THE HEAD 6 TIMES WITH A HIGH POWERED SHOTGUN IN FRONT OF HIS FAMILY

absolutely disgusting.
i went on the website about the group picketing Heath's funeral and sent them a nice old comment.
Sick people, I swear.
what do you expect from FOX! Bunch of losers on this network.
Perez, you hypocrite. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black! Re: your easily offended little comment yesterday
This is repulsive–even his coworkers were telling him what an ignorant bastard he was. Sick right-wing motherfucker–how "christian". Fox news is a joke.
so fucking classy. not even the death of a human being can stop assholes like him.
I have never written in a complaint before about anything but i googled his email and sent a email to him and his producers. How can anyone make a death a joke. two parents lost their son on tuesday and will never recover from that even in 5 years those words would never be acceptable that really disturbed me I hope he takes all of our emails seriously and either gets fired or has a very large public apology on air.
That's disgusting.
HIS SHOW SHOULD GET PULLED OFF, DUMB OLD ASS
They should fire that asshole.
Re: kenned – Re: kenned – grr nobody in america thinks this is normal. opinion tv is what it is…opinion. we don't think it's news. it's annoying to see foreigners who are so quick to judge us. i don't know where you are from, but i'm sure that your country is not perfect. look at all of the people who are on here that don't watch fox. everyone knows it is a thinly veiled front for rupert murdoch's politics!

you are a sick bastard. It is hard enough for his family, friends and fans to deal with his passing. They don't need so see people on t.v. trying to make light of this situtation. It is not a laughing matter and whom ever you work for should be ashamed.
R.I.P. Heath
His family, and friends are in my thoughts.
Re: Australian – i agree with this guy 110%
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.

Comment I just mailed to John Gibson:
John Gibson, you reprehensible, homophobic piece of shit!!! You're such a bigot that you even spit on the grave of an actor who gives a sympathetic portrayal of a gay man. You're a disgusting, ugly human being. Every bit as ugly on the outside as you have proven yourself to be on the inside. No matter how deluded you may be to think otherwise, TRUST that no gay man would ever give you a second look. If you've been blessed enough (and believe me it would take a miracle) to find a woman to have married your ass even though you look like the offspring of an ugly human who got it off with an equally ugly cockatiel, then maybe you should concern yourself more with her zoophilic tendencies than with hate-mongering against decent and compassionate human beings who are unfortunately no longer among us while you remain so.

i will make sure he receives an email.
that is just fucking pathetic. what a stupid fucking idiot.
OI! JOHN GIBSON! from EVERYONE in Australia, why dont you go fuck yourself, you old shrivelled piece of dick.
Our country is mourning the lose of one of our greatest souls who we loved dearly and watched grow infront of us, have some fucking respect.
I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT SHIESTY A$$-BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously. What a sick individual in need of therapy and prayer. He needs to issue an apology NOW. NOW. NOW.
I'm a republican who is very offended by those comments. Heath was a father who obviously shouldn't have been abusing drugs, but to mock someone who has lost their life in such a mean spirit is horrible. To critique his lifestyle choices in a serious manner is a different story, but this is unacceptable.
when the news first broke about heath ledger's passing.. perez thought it would be cute to write "heather ledger" has died. And then the "easily offended" post from yesterday where he makes a britney spears-heath ledger joke. Then today he turns around and pretends he gives a shit. pathetic.
I literally listened the clip with my mouth wide open, I can NOT believe someone can sink so low!! He is talking about a person who no longer is even abel to defend himself of that assholes comments, I mean respect the deceased, honor his memory and let him rest in peace. I hope no member of Ledgers family will hear those low and disgusting words of that sad sad ugly and evil man. May they grief in peace too…
Well his opinion might not be right but this site is pretty hate mongering as well, Heaven forbid u have oops did I say heaven- banish me!!
So anyways its apparent anyone who might have conservative views is viewed as closed minded or hate filled well just reading a new post on here is usually hate filled!
Dont throw stones in glass houses Perez & Perez followers who cry for a "fake idol" there is more to life!
Well, Karma is a bitch. He is an awful person, and will get his.
What an ignorant prick! Email sent. I hope Fox News punishes him in some way! Just another reason NEVER to watch Fox News.
mocking the recent death of any human is revolting. how can any sane person make a mockery of such a tragic event. Heath Ledger was a human being, he wasn't a character in one of his movies, and he should be remembered as an extremely talented actor.
I just emailed the son of a bitch.
Fucking CUNT.
IT'S TOO LATE FOR THAT OLD FUCKER TO SAY SORRY AND IF HE DID IT'S ONLY TO SAVE HIS OLD WRINKLED WHITE ASS. I HOPE HE DIES NEXT SO I CAN FUCKIN LAUGH. SOMEONE SHOULD SHOOT HIM IN THE HEAD 6 TIMES WITH A HIGH POWERED SHOTGUN IN FRONT OF HIS FAMILY!!!!!!!!!!
He is sooo rude - how would he like it if it was a friend or member of his family? The guy died FFS. I cannot believe he is just sitting there taking the piss - what an asshole
john gibson is a fucking idiot. he should be fired.
what a good way for you to get media attention. i'm sure on his next show he'll name drop you saying all your site readers sent him hate mail. then it will turn out into in all out feud we have to be involved in. make sure you cc all your friends at star an ok.
What kind of person mocks someone who has tragically passed on? That was a terrible thing to lisen to. This man should be ashamed of himself! It is true what they say, "Only the good die young" and heath was, as far as Ive ever understood it, been a good person. A well respect actor, as well as a father of someone so young who will not ever know her real father. This young man had a family who is now mourning for the loss of their beloved son. He had friends and fans. This man who mocks him has absolutly no right. He did not know the person behind the movies. He is a gay basher as well as someone with poor ethics and morals. Thank god for men like Heath. Without them, rights for gay indeviduals would not exist in todays society. It is sad to see that some people have not yet embraced the fact that eveyone should be equal and have equal rights. God bless you heath ledger.
Re: Dan –
wow…. good one.
Re: chris –
then why do you bother going to this site and commenting???
what a dick! that's why he's a news anchor on FOX NEWS.
what a joke.
death is nothing to make fun of!
I did mail him an email he deserves all the headache from this but, the sick twisted fuck probally likes the attetion. I bet he has no soul! He probally sold it to the devil already.
You're such a hypocrite. You complain about this but you constantly and consistantly make post after post mocking the infant/toddler/preschool-age children of celebs. At least Heath put himself out there for the public - babies like SPF, JJ, and the others you call "special" and whatever else don't deserve your shit. You think that's just funny - well, the same amendment protects this douche and what he thinks is funny. What's the difference?
Besides, how many unfounded rumors about Mr. Ledger have you posted in the past 24 hours? You should be ashamed of your own self, "Queenie."
Here's a suggestion: BOYCOTT all of Fox's Advertisers. Hit them where it hurts: in the pocket book. This just goes to show you how LOW those at FOX news are. It's a vile network run by vile people. FUCK YOU FOX!
This man is a disgusting excuse of a human being to mock any other human beings life. I am sure that his family/friends would say the same if HE died and people mocked his death….truely disgusting….
What is wrong with that man? So disgusting. No sense and no compassion.
i just emailed, this is horrible he needs fired
karma's gonna get this asshole. he better get fired!
well are we just the pot calling the kettle black!!! you remind me of a junior high school girl.
that being said, you're right, john gibson is a fucker!
WHAT AN ASSHOLE
PEREZ KEEP ON EYE ON WEN HE DIES SO THE WHOLE WORLD CAN HAVE A PARTY AND MAKE FUN OF HIM
I HOPE HE BURNS IN HELL
I SENT HIM A LETTER I HOPE HE CRIES
that is disgusting. i'm totally e-mail him. that is so disrespectful! I don't care if you hate someone with a passion, you don't do something like that when ANYONE passes away. does anyone seriously watch that news show? we should boycott
Heath, fuckin best movie ever. Always in my soul. Trust me something is coming out about that cocksucker. Fox doesnt pay enought to keep secrets tight. I just hope the fucker dies of prostate cancer.
I e-mailed the fucker. Update us on this guy if he responds on air about his comments.
ALL PEREZ DOES IS MOCK PEOPLE! HEATH DIED ONLY DIED YESTERDAY AND HE ALREADY HAS MADE 3 LOW-BLOWS. 1.)PUTTING "HEATHER LEDGER" HAS DIED. 2.)THE EASILY OFFENDED JOKE WITH HEATH LEDGER AND BRITNEY SPEARS 3.)MOCKING JOHN TRAVOLTA'S COMMENTS ABOUT HEATH LEDGER LIKE HE IS GAY FOR HIM. THEN TO TURN AROUND AND SAY "LEDGER'S DEATH IS NOT A LAUGHING MATTER" SUCH AN ASS… AND REALLY, HEATH LEDGER WAS SO EXTREMELY TALENTED. ALL PEREZ DOES IS LIVE OFF SAYING TERRIBLE THINGS ABOUT PEOPLE AND HAVING NO TALENT. IT IS A SAD WORLD WE LIVE IN, HONESTLY.
he should get kicked off the air just like imus did. heath ledger was a person. that prick should have some respect for the dead.
this is absolutely disgusting…no matter how much a perso is bad…living people should have nuff dignity to not insult dead people……how would he feel if someone played this clip after he dies and says something nasty…obviously he won't be there to listen….so why disrespect someone who is gone forever…SHAME ON YOU MISTER!!
You are such a hypocrit. Do we recall when falwell died? God knows, the people here didn't say anything "mocking" him right? OHH, thats right, they damned him to hell. What a fucking joke.
I hope someone cracks a joke about his death or his family members death just as he did.That way,he can see just how tasteless and classless he is.How dare he mock Heath! HOW FUCKING DARE HE!
I JUST SENT THE FOLLWOING EMAIL TO HIM:
YOU ALREADY KNOW THAT YOU ARE A SICK OLD WORTHLESS WHITE PIECE IF SHIT. IGNORANT PEOPLE LIKE YOU DESERVE TO DIE. BURN IN HELL WHITE TRASH . FOX NEWS IS PATHETIC. FUCKERS
that is disgusting who would make jokes about a person who just died i hope he gets fired this is as worse as imus
mocking the recent death of any human is revolting.
amen!
wish perez wasn't such a hypocrite!!
apologize for the "heather ledger" comment and the easily offended post, perez!!!
His remarks are very disrespectful. Gibson should publicly apologize on air to Ledger's family and friends. Heath Ledger was a great, hardworking actor. His life should be remembered with respect.
Perez,
Here is what I have said to John *fuckface* Gibson, I have also CC'd Roger Ailes, the "CEO". his email is: roger.ailes@foxnews.com,:
Dear John Gibson,
I am hoping you will be issuing an apology regarding your comments on Heath Ledgers untimely passing on your "news" show. Death is no laughing matter, and I am sure that his family would not appreciate the mockery you made out of him during this difficult time in their lives. That is someones father! You have made assumptions about his death by suggesting it was suicide, when there has been no PROOF.
I am sure your family would raise a stink about someone on the "news" making a joke out of your death (and lets hope it comes sooner than later). You are a disgusting human being.
this is what i would expect from a right wing fox pig like gibson he is a total JERK.
i don't like him either. i work with children of the military and he was VERY unkind to me and my cause. very dismissive. i'm sure he wouldn't like people to know that, but he really doesn't care about anyone but himself.
This man is an asshole. I sent an email myself to his stupid mailbox. I hope he enjoys all of his hate mail, that cold hearted bastard.
WOW. i cant believe that. thats extremely unclassy. some people and their ridiculous political beliefs completely obliterate the concept human decency.
the unfortunate thing is, FOX monopolizes a pretty solid chunk of the media and there are way too many old fashioned god fearing conservative americans to support this shit.
this guy is a huge tool.
what a jerk!! how disrespectful is that? what a heartless man he is!
i can't wait to write him some nasty hate mail!
you know what's funny, this guys life isn't worth a shit now.; Someone is going to kill him just for spite. an HL fan is going to off this fox piece of shit just for fun and it will be justified. He really asked for it. I think it's great. Live in fear mohter fucker. Because that's what youve become a fukin target.
.
Re: LEE – wow you're a fucking piece of shit inbred loser. kill yourself bitch
Gibson wishes he could have had 1/10000th of the sweet pussy Heath enjoyed during his short life. Jealous and ugly this Gibson creature is..
Gibson is also a closet homosexual.
i don't like him either, i work with children of the troops who are deployed. and he was very cruel, uncaring and dismissive about our mission. i mean what kind of animal doesn't care about the children of our troops? i was not surprised to hear this is how he behaved toward the sad passing of heath ledger. he probably laughs about the deaths of the troops too.
Someone MUST have this info!?
What the fuck what kind of guy is this.. who makes fun of someone, talented as heath, who just died and has a 2 year old little girl which now has no father figure you fucking asshole! Our hearts go out to heaths family…
while i can't say that i'm shocked about a FOX news employee making suck an ass of
himself, i must say that i am surprised. please for a moment stop and think about the
millions of idiots who actually watch your show… although i don't know who you are,
they do and your stupidity probably reaches many. it sickens me to see that your channel
has once again condoned such poor behavior. the only tragedy here is that Heath is gone
and you unfortunately are still here. Heath was a positive person and changed the world
REGARDLESS of his personal struggles. i would be delighted to hear your history, that of
your family. do you have no history of drug abuse? no mental health or criminal
histories? i ask only that you think of his family and their struggle. you should be
ashamed of yourself. i rest assured knowing that karma is no longer on your side, Mr.
Gibson.
never a viewer,
XXXXXXXX
fuck you you fuckin douchebag.. get off the air now
i hope he gets fired. what an asshole.

Don't worry guys I'm gonna get this Gibson's ass in a matter of days, gonna
make sure he dies the slowest and most painful death, and I have already
booked him a place in the "fascist assholes" ward in Hell, dude is fucked, I'm
gonna make him scream in agony for eternity!
Yours,
God

Re: Sophie – Me too. God he should just slip into a coma right now and do the world a favor.
i took that offensively.
he should be sympathetic.
it's not the right time to make fun of this.
:[
Perez… who the FUCK are YOU to call someone a HATE MONGER?
SERIOUSLY!!!!!!!! Hmmmm…. (think Britney for one second.)
And I would have never meet Heath in this lifetime, but I find it DISGUSTING how all you bastard sites are using his death to draw MASSIVE amounts of traffic to your site by posting articles of his TRAGIC death every few hours - even articles with SPECULATED information. How dignifying and respectful is that?
Death is harsh enough - be it old, young, suicide, over dose, natural causes, etc.
Quit trying to make a profit off of his death and let it rest a bite… SHUT YOUR FUCKING PIE HOLE!
How would you feel if he had been voted into your celebrity "Death Pit" and then died?
ASSHOLE!
Holla! Sent a letter to all three emails… very professional but I didn't proof read so not sure how good it sounds! haha

Fuck John Gibson and Fox News! He should get fired. I sent an email to both of those email addresses. How can someone have such lack of human compassion?! RIP HEATH LEDGER! YOU WILL BE MISSED!
THAT IS JUST WRONG. How do you wish death onto someone. Did he know him personally? Calling him a weirdo? He is a weirdo…….he should be fired from FOX news. That's RIDICULOUS!!!!
I just emailed that bastard John Gibson and FOX News….How pathetic…Seriously..Something better be done about this..His comments were unacceptable.Period.

As someone who has been diagnosed with clinical depression and has had more nights than I can count where I didn’t know if I’d see the morning, John Gibson’s malice and spite lead me to believe that he probably thinks lighting hamsters on fire is a sure-fire way to cure boredom. It’s a-holes like this that helped make me re-register as a Democrat and now that decision will never be rescinded because of this. Being human is something John seems to have pushed to the side to get ratings and to get the keys to the chastity belts of the GOP’s elite.
