        The reason is that really... nobody cares if something happens to someone they've never heard of. So if Fawx News broadcasts that Jimbob from hillbilly town had a stroke... maybe only close friends or relatives will care. Nobody else would.

        But if they broadcast about someone millions of people know about, there's a lot of money in that... so it's understandable why we don't hear about non-famous people.

          Nobody is... my point was the media and the big deal people make of it (not me).

            You may be confusing "have not status" with "wondering why we should give half a flying fuck about some rich bitch who died". Big difference.

              Kate Spade found dead in her NYC apartment.

              Who??? Are we supposed to know who that is?

              She apparently was a billionaire ugly purse maker.

                  But there are negatives, like that poor cleaning lady had to find her.

                    Hopefully that cleaning lady got some hush money to keep her from revealing the embarrassing details.
