![]() ![]() ![]() So I think Randall Riese is a jerk for, e.g., callously describing the crash site where Patsy Cline died. It's a very different thing, however, to show no respect for country music celebrities who died through no fault of their own - even if their personal lives were not exemplary. That, I would argue, is fair game, especially if said stupid behavior is something that others might be inclined to do - e.g., driving drunk. It's one thing to go into graphic detail about the violent deaths of whatever sort that were self-inflicted by the stupid behavior of the deceased. One thing that I strongly object to about the book is that the author goes into lurid detail about the gruesome deaths of various country music stars in car and plane accidents, etc. I don't know a lot about the various personalities covered but few of the book's "revelations" struck me as particularly scandalous. Unabashedly trashy, which is a genre I sometimes enjoy reading although I frequently feel ashamed later. ![]()
