Brad Renfro...no coverage?

Tweet

Am I the only person that did not know Brad Renfro had died until after Heath Ledger? How did this happen? Brad was easily one of my favorite actors. I imdb him every so many months just to see what project he might soon be in. I absolutely adored him...especially after Bully. I understand that at this moment in time, Heath had a larger career...but I would dispute that he was more talented. And I ache for the loss of both of them...I just do not understand why Brad's death did not get more coverage. He was young and talented and had his whole life ahead of him as well. He also had a young child. The two are quite similar and I think they deserved the same amount of attention. I feel for their families. No one should have to deal with such tragedy. I am still in shock. I don't even think Brad's death has really hit me yet.
