Some of the things I have seen posted about Roger has been pretty pathetic. And some downright despicable.
This guy was not Hugo Chavez, is not Fidel Castro, or Bill Clinton, or Barack Obama, or anyone else who walks around with blood on his hands and doesn't care.
Roger Ebert was first and foremost a film critic. Yeah, he leaned to the left and, yeah, he expressed opinions that reflected that. But so what? Why is that an excuse to kick around a dead man? If a differing opinion is enough for you to sport a seething, aggressive hatred for someone, then you must live very lonely lives.
You guys need to freakin' chill and remember Roger the way he should be remembered: He changed the way we look at movies.
Some of the stuff has just been beyond the pale.
