The only reason the media covered this stream of events so much is because Anna was “pretty”. You can compare this to the huge amount of coverage Reagan’s death got back in 2004. My CBS affiliate even had a Reagan STATION ID. I feel disgusted sometimes to live in a country where the 6 o’ clock news is ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT’S LEAD-IN.

ARREST HOWARD K STERN FOR MURDER ! BOTH SON AND MOTHER!

What is there to understand re: the Anna Nicole/Danny Smith deaths? It’s SO plain that Howard Stern used and exploited her for his own gain…he’s a leach and a parasite, as Mark Furman says, “a snake in a suit” He even LOOKS like common depictions of Satan. all that’s missing are the horns. It’s obvious he murdered Danny, to get him out of the way first (as he was beneficiary on estate, with himself second) It’s also obvious that he “pushed” drugs on Anna Nicole..when she was under the influence it was easy to minipulate her mind. She remained relatively sober when he was not on the scene. He’s will not submit to a paternity test as he hoping for Bahama law to declare him legal father. He only wants control of baby because of possible inherritance of billions through her dead mother’s estate of which he conveniently made himself executor. This man is the epitomy of evil! Investigate him for MURDER!

Does it ever occur to anyone that we accept the conventional consensus that it is perfectly acceptable to spit on this woman like she was dirt. I understand she loved her son and he died while laying next to her in her hospital bed. She loved her daughter and painted pictures for her nursery walls. Despite her image, this was a human being–who suffered pain when she read what other people said about her. Her life was a tragedy and she is just another stoned woman.

People that are talking bad about a deceased person no matter who it is certainly does not have a heart. I am sure that if your loved one passed away reguardless of why, I am sure you would want the respect for them the way you are speaking about Anna?

ok I think you all are crazy ok so she may not of been the smartest person alive and so what shes dead and everyone has something to say about her oh shes stupid she slurrs her words she was on drugs why does everyone have something to say now why put all that in the media now. shes dead and she cant even stand up for herself. and all this will be here for little dannie lynn hope to read when she grows up instead of trying to leave her bad memories of her daughter we should try and give her good ones………. Anna Nicole Smith was her own person she didnt care what others thought she was always who she was wether you liked it or not. She was never afraid to say what she thought or how she felt. She wasnt fake …. she wouldnt say something to keep from hurting your feelings she just said what was on her mind no matter what … that is just honest why is everyone having such a trouble with that …….. as far as her getting more attention than the war dont she deserve it she is dead they cant just put her on hold cause she is no longer here the war is here and i dont see it ending any time soon so what does it hurt to give her a few days the war will still be going on when the death of ANNA cools down and we can continue to talk about it then ……. Just give Anna Nicole the respect she deserved and if you didnt respect her when she was alive repect her now… That girl had been through alot the death of a child is never easy no matter who you are being famous dont make it better and maybe she just needed to be with her son who knows i dont think we will ever know how she really died or why but who cares she did and now we should all just let her rest in piece……. one more thing before i go I think that her mom should back off she should be buried by her son that is what she would want and howard stern is just trying to make her last wishes come true ………..

Anna Nicole Smith is a very sad situation, All she wanted in life was to be loved, No matter what anyone thinks, there is a little baby without a mother, that in itself is a sad situation. The war is an ongoing thing and I think the people need a break. But on the other hand, the family of those men and women fighting for us don’t see it that way. I think both are very sad situations. I hated Anna Nicole Smith until she died and I started seeing how unhappy she REALLY was. Anyone who has gone through any part of her life in their own, can relate, those who have had the perfect life, can not understand. I feel so sad about her death and wish everyone would have fought this hard to keep her alive as they are to burry her. I hope she is burried next to her son where she wants to be.

[...] VIDEO COMPILATION: Anna Nicole Smith And Our National Media Embarassment The death of Anna Nicole Smith yesterday was a feeding frenzy for the national media, and coverage of the war was drowned out: NBCâ€™s Nightly News devoted 14 seconds to Iraq compared to 3 minutes and 13 seconds to Anna Nicole. CNN referenced Anna Nicole 522% more frequently than it did Iraq. MSNBC was even worse â€” 708% more references to Anna Nicole than Iraq.
