Mediabistro.com poll: Enough with Reagan's death already?
http://www.mediabistro.com/#survey


The results so far:

From special editions of the newsweeklies to ongoing television reports, there's been overwhelming coverage of Ronald Reagan's death—and overwhelmingly positive coverage of his life. Has it all been too much?


No. He is perhaps the most influential recent political figure, and his life is being justly celebrated. 10%


(28 votes)
No. A president's death is big news, but the coverage should be less hagiographic. Um, Iran-Contra? 13%


(36 votes)
Maybe. His important life should be celebrated, though at some point enough is enough. 13%


(34 votes)
Yes. Give the man his due, but a 93-year-old's natural death is not big news. 12%


(32 votes)
Yes. He was a vacuous ideologue and his death was not unexpected. Enough already. 50%


(130 votes)
(Total: 260 votes)
