Whilst I agree that this is what they do when people die, bring up all their failings and faults - it seems rather pointless as he's dead now and why not let sleeping dogs lie.
As one comment on the DM says "I knew it wouldn't be long before the DM would bring up dirt on George,
they do it to every singer/celebrity that dies." It's what they do, sadly.
The stupid thing is that we all already know about his past, it was there in the media for all to see when it was happening. It's not news - it's regurgitation of old articles, they have printed all of this stuff about him before. Very lazy 'journalism' (if you could call it that!).
