From what we know

I will be the first to admit that the Media can be quite a dangerous tool.
Gossip and Lies can be quickly spread with little need for the truth - as long as the story sells, who cares right?
I DO! I am studying to become a journalist because I want to let the world know the TRUTH.
This post comes in to regard of all the whirlwind rumours on Heath Ledger's life.
The Media, especially the Australian Media know that Heath was a extremely private person.
So it astounds me that they(Media) will not let Michelle Williams, the mother of Heath's child, have a break. This poor women has to go through raising a child alone and telling her daughter she will never see her Dad again, how horrific.
And just to think will Matilda Ledger have any memories of her Dad? My first memory was when I was 3 and 1/2.
It also angers me that he has now been romantically linked,after his death to Helena Christensen, Mary-Kate Olsen and Gemma Ward in a matter of days.
Heath would be amazed and shocked at the amount of 'scandalous gossip' that is getting spread around about his life. Let me point out some facts:

-Heath Ledger's passed away in New York on Tuesday afternoon/(Australia Wednesday Morning)
-He was pronounced dead at 3.45pm New York time.
-The basic fact is that until additional tests have been conducted, the autopsy is incomplete and inconclusive as to why this 28-year-old man died.

That is all we know.

We do not know if Heath was a drug addict, or if was having casual sex with Mary-Kate Olsen so to give him the respect he deserves, I will not write another post about him until I know 100% the facts.

I hope other media outlets would do the same and give his family and close friends time to grieve in privacy.
