Heath Ledger is now no longer the most shocking celebrity death of 2008
I couldn't believe the headline on the news. We all know how we felt about Russert on this board but he was not an evil man and it's tragic that his life was ended suddenly at only 58. RIP.

8. Yup
What most people don't understand about Ledger's death is that he wasn't abusing any of the drugs that killed him. It just worked its way into a lethal cocktail. That's shocking.

3. You're correct. Sydney Pollock's was way more shocking.

7. He was a celebrity 'journalist' in the end
He was a Bush cheerleader but I'm sorry he died so young.
