Touring's no joke. The guys and I were run off the road before and it was scary as hell. I'm so sorry to read that the driver was killed. What a shame, the article didn't even give him a name.

I feel more sad for the driver than I do Cyrus.

poor driver, i wish his/her family the best.

Uhhh, TheStarclassicTreatment has a point. But I still don't understand why this is newsworthy.

According to Dave, everything on the news is in fact "newsworthy". Hence the article.
|
| |
What's the big deal about what gets posted as news? Does it really ruin your day when you see something outside of "NEW CYNIC ALBUM" posted as news. This is a music site, covering all grounds is just good business, plus articles outside of Sputniks golden bands bring up good and/or funny discussions most of the time.

Newsworthiness is determined by the importance of the article in relation to the respective institution through which it is broadcast and by the expected generated attention from said new article, amongst other things.
I'm pretty sure that this article has had a few hits and it is music related news so....

well I'm saddened by the death :/ Stuff like that just stinks....but Miley wasn't hurt so thats good lol

If people are going to 'BAW' about every death that occurs, be sure to sob once every second.

Frequency of death doesn't make it any less of a tragic event.

I don't know what BAW means, but I would assume most people would only "sob" about deaths they are actually cognisant of.
|
| |
I don't think saying "Rest In Peace" is the same thing as being sad over someone's death. It's just as natural as birth, like when you say "congratulations on the baby".
|

...either way.
sucks to hear, condolences to his family.

Again, then you should be respectful of the death that is going on at the moment.
You are aware people die and it actually DOESN'T go on the news because they're NOT connected to somebody famous?

Aye, that it is.

Ah, I just read the bit about the driver.
I retract my statement that "this isn't news". Poor driver.
|

Well done mate, in future try to read the article before commenting on it. It helps you to not look like an idiot.

Quite possibly, it would be interesting if he had and Manson just quoted it for the song.

Actually it was one of his Generals who said that, the quote is misattributed to him though. But of what relevance is it, RIP bus driver

Local news outlets in Virginia are reporting one fatality in a crash involving Miley Cyrus' tour bus.
Didn't even go out with his dignity...
In any case, RIP bus driver guy, my condolences are with your family.

I am.
The death of one is a tragedy, the death of a million is just a statistic.
People may be callous, ignorant and certainly not expected to grieve for every single person who kicks the bucket but the death of a million is a million unique tragedies in my book, affecting somebody, somewhere at some time. I don't see why it can't be both a statistic and something profoundly horrible.

Bitch should write a song for him, oh wait she might butcher it, let someone else do it. RIP, sir.

On the other hand, if you're going to 'BAW' every second for someone who died regardless of whether or not you do know someone die, then it defeats the purpose of respect for death. How can you respect something which you don't even know happens?
Sucks that it's usually deaths somehow connected to famous people that get reported, but I think it's better that you mean what you say when you think it sucks they died, as opposed to thinking, "Oh, Christ, someone might have died now. I should feel sorry/sad/whatever just in case." Doesn't say/mean nearly as much.

Apparently his name is Bill Douglas. Miley has said:
"We are deeply saddened by the loss of Bill 'Uncle Bill' Douglas. Members of our tour are like members of our family. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family in the midst of this tragedy. He will truly be missed."
