    Why is is that this channel typically has "miserable life and tragic death" in the titles? In this one, Ed Sullivan's life was far from miserable as was his death.

    Ed Sullivan died in 1974 and was worth an estimated 10 million at the the time of his death, a boat load of money back in 74, but he lost his wife Sylvia a year earlier to heart failure, and had suffered dimentia, according to Joan Rivers, at the end if his life. Ed Brought us great clean entertainment and was a wonderful human being.

    The references to obvious clickbait will always be ignored because this kind of a tactic works. Ed Sullivan once he became famous was never poor, destitute or in the streets.

    What a Miserable and Tragic Life! I've never seen such misery and tragedy before! Who knew Ed Sullivan was penniless and destitute at the end of his life, that he spent time in jail, that he contracted numerous life-threatening diseases throughout his life, that he had a vicious fistfight with Paul McCartney and Ringo right before they appeared on his show and that he died tragically from the Common Cold! RIP Ed Sullivan!!!

    BTW back then "Plastic" cosmetic surgery was new.... at least the term "Plastic Surgery" was new.
    So many in the public falsely though that actual plastic was inserted during the surgery and became part of the patient
    So, what does this have to do with Ed Sullivan?
    Since Ed did not have the greatest smile and one might say it was just a bit unusual.......
    Some in the public started the rumor that Ed has a plastic cheek. I even remember my parents discussing this.

    The only truly tragic part of Ed Sullivan's death was, oddly, not even mentioned. He died an agonizing death from esophageal cancer while under excruciating pain from gastric ulcers which had plagued him for decades.
    Why this channel cheapens its reputation by attaching fictitious headlines and photos concerning
    how celebrities actually died is
    despicable, and can produce only negative publicity and outcry. Why would you undermine your own channel?🙈😫🤯🥺🙉

    Dumb title for a very interesting bio. Anyone interested in a bio would read it without words like "miserable" and "tragic." And the photo of the seated man is not true to his life or death, nor is it likely to be Ed Sullivan. This title is disinformation.
