I understand it was disrespectful as he was asked not to write the column I get that now and I am glad that was made clear... but in all honesty I don't know Michael Prince but I promise that from reading the article I didn't get a bad impression of him . The out poor of love and grief over his passing made me think he was really well liked and to be honest in Ken's article (by the way I don't know Ken either *scouts honor*) he made Michael Prince seem level headed, honest, kind, and responsible... If someone handed me $300 on accident I would get ghost and not give the money back because hey the struggle is real right now! So I thought that was a pretty stand up thing to do (and I am not a bad person I could just use the money and I would chalk it up to your bad for giving me the money) anyways I understand that he went against the wishes of his loved ones and it was yes disrespectful in that light but unfortunately our constitution doesn't have a rule against reporting info (in this case a lack there of) that simply was not wanted printed. It's like the paparazzi they publish article and pics I am sure tons of stars don't want aired out there but this article definitely doesn't slander the mans character - I am deeply sorry for your loss and I can see your sadness through your anger in your comments and I wish you peace and for the pain in your heart to lessen but this will not bring your friend back and this man isn't going to lose his job because of this article although it was unwanted and maybe a little immoral it isn't illegal or slander or even grounds for termination. His motives of course are a bit questionable but this is the world we live today. Condolences to you, your friend and his family.— August 9, 2013 9:02 a.m.

I am not in the music industry and I realized what the term "sleaze metal" meant especially because the writer paired it with the "hair" band description, I think you are looking too far into it I never once got a bad impression of the band or Michael from the article. I am with Sageofsantee on this one... also categorizing yourself in a musical genre doesn't make me judge the persons character .... I think people who think this article is bad or slandering his character , are just viewing it negatively and being judgmental since that's not the type of person I am I just don't see Michael Prince as a bad person at all nor do I after reading the article. I will say it was a poorly written article... I would like some information usually when you write NEWS about someone's death ... there is some sort of speculation on what happened I will say the people trying to avoid saying how he passed " it's none of your business" and trying to keep it all hush... they are making it seem like something bad... like a drug over dose or suicide - I gather all this from the reaction not saying its true and even if it were I still wouldn't have a bad opinion of the man I don't doubt at all that he was a good person.... just saying #totallyneutral #sageofsanteeseemssmart!— August 8, 2013 4:47 p.m.

I didn't know Michael Personally or Ken either I just read the article because my news feed on IG and FB is blowing up about this but to be completely honest .. and I don't mean to hurt or disrespect anyone I really don't see anything disrespectful about this. I also gathered from reading the article that Michael was a nice man with a level head especially in clearing up the dispute over the $300 - he sounded responsible and not at all immature or anything of that nature I will say that I didn't learn anything about his death or what happened to him so this is definitely un informative and I don't understand the point of it - please excuse my cluelessness just trying to shed some light on the situation... and how did he pass does anyone know?— August 8, 2013 1:59 p.m.
