Well, apparently he has a talk show on Fox Radio. He's becoming more and more famous for making undignified remarks. He called Heath Ledger a "weirdo" with a "serious drug problem." Making fun of the famous "I wish I knew how to quit you" line from "Brokeback Mountain," Gibson said of his death, "Well, he found out how to quit you."
This is not Gibson's first time making inappropriate comments in the wake of tragedy. In July 2005, just one day before the 7/7 terrorist bombings in London, Gibson said that "the International Olympic Committee missed a golden opportunity....If they had picked France instead of London to hold the Olympics, it would have been the one time we could look forward to where we didn't worry about terrorism. They'd blow up Paris, and who cares?" The next day, after the London bombings, Gibson repeated the remarks.
Even Archie Bunker didn't poke fun at life and death situations.
The challange here is to be witty without being an ass.
He's probaby too much of an ass to become anywhere near "witty."
