If it was all about enlarging their audience numbers, and it clearly was, then that is just out right ridiculous. Joking about suicide? That is very unproffensional, personally. I think that they should be fired or punished severely for that comment.

How can someone even begin to say anything about another person, like this. I know people have the right to speak their opinions but this is just a bit much; if you ask me. What they should of done was just let the pore guy alone and just mind there own business.

This is so bad. How could they do this. Tease an innocent man! I can’t see light anymore.

This kind of news cast is horrible to see on television. How could anyone make fun of a suicide let alone on TV. This broadcast was used to leave your viewers in suspense about the loss of a human life. I bet a pretty penny that the family WAS NOT full of suspense. Obviously this story showed no respect for the dead. Your suppose to celebrate the person’s life, not their death. If I was this persons family member, I wouldnt only be hurt, but more enraged!

This sort of news broadcasting is definitely a liberal approach to presenting the news. I’m not calling the tv station wrong for doing this, however I would not exploit a story in tis manner. Suicide is a very serious thing and is better left low profile. Had this story been an exclusive interview with a cast member or a story about a show cancellation, this would be a marvelous approach. But in my opinion, keeping fans in suspense for a story about the loss of a human life is just a little immoral in my standards. If I was a family member of the person the story was about, I would be enraged.
