With all due respect to the OP, doesn't "killed himself" sort of indicate suicide rather than an accident. I realize this was clarified in the post itself, but it seems the time it took to clarify may have been better spent changing the thread title. I beg your pardon if there is a pun or something that I have missed. RTR

Major newspapers employ writers whose sole concern is catchy titles for articles.

I think pretty much all newspapers have headline writers.  I know the T-news does and they are hardly major.

What I saw was the big thing on MSNBC (Morning Joe) was that Roger Ebert (film critic) had twittered derogatories the same day the guy died. The MSNBC idiots spent a half an hour talking about how it was too soon to be joking about him. Not once did these liberal fools mention the other guy or his family.

Ebert tweeted "friends dont let jackasses drive drunk" 

Pretty tame.

I read where they thought he was driving on 100. The porsche 911 he was driving is capable of 190 according to the report I saw.

Have to admit I bashed Ebert at first for being insensitive, but the more I read, the more I believe he was right. Beyond irresponsible to drive drunk at that speed and then take the life of someone else as well as your own.

I thought he (Ebert) was pretty funny, but responding to calls like this for over 17 years kinda gives you a gallows sense of humor...
