And now the media becomes a pack of ghouls and vultures. *sigh* · 9:22pm Apr 22nd, 2016
Okay, look, folks.
Prince died. In an elevator. Alone.
It's confirmed this was no suicide. There's no obvious signs of anything unusual other than that he died.
By all accounts, Prince didn't have any sort of drug addiction. Not even painkillers.
So please, you media vultures, you media ghouls, stop trying to create a big dramatic narrative about opiates or Percoset or whatever the FUCK you want to sell papers and ad time with.
Prince had an aneurysm. Calling it now. Or a sudden, viral-induced respiratory failure. But an aneurysm is by far the likeliest cause of a VERY sudden death like this.
Of course, an aneurysm isn't "sexy", and it doesn't matter one goddamn bit to the media that what they're doing is ghoulish and disrespectful. 
Nothing but a buncha buzzards hungry for roadkill.
'Becomes'? I think that, especially for "entertainment" media, that ship sailed, hit the iceberg, broke the iceberg, and became a Flying Dutchman decades ago...
Honestly, I want Prince to have died of an overdose. Because anurysms are scary. And viral diseases are scary. I'm not going to die of an overdose. But a sudden anyurism is always an irrational fear.
3889378 I do think you could have worded that better.
I'm more concerned about the vultures that will release all the thousand+ songs he made for himself with unnecessary guest verses from whatever soulless pop sensation is going around.
I'd bet on this actually. I'd heard that he been trying to fight off the flu for several weeks but had been pushing himself hard.
3889408 I do believe you're right, MM.
Well, the media men do tend to differ, at least if the hole in the satellite picture is any judge...
I'm sorry, I couldn't resist
As long as there's that ONE percent of the media that treats Prince with respect, I still have hope.
