I wonder if the national news media would go into such a drawn-out, concentrated, adoring frenzy over an actor's suicide if the deceased was a staunch conservative instead of a dedicated, rabid lefty like Williams?

Did the media go bonkers for hours and days when Charleton Heston passed normally several years ago?

Charlton Heston was in his mid 80s and suffering from Alzheimer’s. His death wasn’t a shock. A suicide of a major celeb who isn’t elderly will always be huge news.
