I'm sorry to hear about your friend but I've never understood this type of hostile response to news of a public figure dying. People who knew about your friend Walt care about his life, and death. A lot more people knew of Amy Winehouse and her troubled life, hence the attention her death is getting. Don't worry, the attention won't last. The public has a fickle attention span and no one will be talking about AW next week.
How exactly would Walt's death have gotten widespread media coverage? My death certainly won't. The vast majority of people in the world do not know that I exist. And that's the way I like it, FWIW.
