Ed Asner, who played a gruff newsman for laughs and for drama in the classic TV series “The Mary Tyler Moore Show” and its spinoff “Lou Grant” in the 1970s and 1980s and was honored with seven Emmy Awards, died on Sunday at age 91, his family said.

Asner, whose diverse credits also included a key voice role in the acclaimed 2009 animated film “Up,” died at his home surrounded by his family, his publicist told media outlets.

His family confirmed the death on the actor’s Twitter feed, writing, “We are sorry to say that our beloved patriarch passed away this morning peacefully.”

A communist died. Good.

Sorry to hear this. It’s a damned shame that he died a commie.

I used to love him til he opened hateful libtard mouth. Another leftist silenced on earth but now screaming in hell now that God has him where he deserves to go.

[Glad2bnuts]

Another piece of evidence that the good indeed do die young.
