Gibson is an idiot and Fox sucks, no big surprise there. To be honest, when I first saw your thread I thought the story was about Mel Gibson and not John. I can't say I'm surprised that some people on the right have used Ledger's Oscar nominated "Brokeback Mountain" performance as some flash point in their never ending culture war aka bigotry dressed in drag as concern. I actually read the townhall.com column of some old toad today who implied that since Ledger was part of wicked Hollywood he had it coming. As a gay man, I'm always ready for the worst from the right when a seemingly unrelated tragedy gives them a chance to spew their shit. At least the Westboro Baptist Church freaks are honest about where they stand.
