I understand that Newman was a movie icon, so such adoration is to be expected. I just wanted to post a reminder that, as compelling as Newman’s characters might have been, they were fictional. The death of Officer Faulkner and the impact on his loved ones is real. It has tortured his survivors to this day, enabled by useful idiots such as Newman. Anyone familiar with the case will remember Daniel Faulkner this day, a real hero to Newman’s celluloid facsimiles.

I will not speak ill of the dead. Newman was a good actor, stayed faithful to his 2nd wife and did much charity work. Other than that, he was socialistic in nature and the evidence is out there.

'nuff said.

Sure, it's to be expected. Same happened with Norman Mailer.

And I couldn't believe the outpouring when Heath Ledger of Brokeback died.

I expect it. I still think it's ridiculous.

Newman played anti-heroes, not heroes. He contribued greatly to the deterioration of good values nationally.
