It appears that Celebrity Death has gone too far-This is evidenced by the Death of the young starlet  Brittany Murphy.

Has our thirst for celebrity death gone too far wth the death of Brittany Murphy.

It has been  all too much for American’s Perception of Death and bloggers on the Internet. Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, Billy Mays,  John Hughes, Ted Kennedy… all have been changed in death because of the internet and twitter.

“….. you’d think the whole of “Who’s Who” had vanished in a single gigantic puff of glittery smoke. You can’t really blame CNN or TMZ or the army of bloggers who host these elaborate public wakes: They’re simply giving us what we want. We don’t just grieve for celebrities anymore; we indulge in orgies that turn the dead into the people we need them to be so we can assuage our anxieties about death, both our own and America’s. Do not ask for whom the blog tweets; it tweets for thee”via www.esquire.com
