Some Other Horrendous Reactions to Robin Williams' Death

I wrote about Gene Simmons recently, and his idiotic comments on depression and suicide, in the wake of the death by suicide of Robin Williams.

But, he was hardly the only famous television personality to have shown disrespect and, quite frankly, a lack of professionalism on the subject.

Here are a couple of other notable examples, including one involving (not surprisingly) FOX News, and the other involving a former actor from Different Strokes.

Also, it is worth noting that Rush Limbaugh suspected that Robin Williams killed himself because of his left-leaning politics.

Is it me, or are people who are completely infatuated with money really that out of touch with everything else outside of the world of making money? Maybe that's a prerequisite for that kind of mindset, simply having no ability to sympathize, much less understand, people that are not exactly like them, and that do not go nearly as far in their obsession?

Just speculation on my part, admittedly. It just struck me as odd.

In any case, here are some links to those articles:
