If you do have something that says otherwise, please post it.

An HIV diagnosis in NO WAY means that someone is a dirty, drug using, narcissistic, nymphomaniac that had it coming...

except in the case of Charlie Sheen.

When you play with fire you are bound to get burnt.

While I feel sad for his diagnosis, he is not the only person in the world with it.

The vultures who were black mailing and extorting money from him to keep it silent, is beyond vicious.

I'm glad he came out himself and released himself from these vultures and beat them at their own game.

Now I hope the takes a deep look inside himself ( too little, too late) and begins a road to health.

He can't keep up this lifestyle and expect to WIN this battle.

Not a fan of this program but others seem to be, however, we do like the today show so we have the TV in our bedroom set to turn on to NBC in the morning while we get ready. This morning I was listening to Kim Wagner and in promoting the up-coming Charlie Sheen interview on the today show she said that Charlie would discuss his drug use which included IV drug use (or something along these lines). Her husband/co-anchor turned to her for clarification and seemed shocked she was reporting that, asking he admitted to IV drug use? Kim says yes, then says well, that's what someone told me but you can wait to hear it for your self on the today show.

I listened to the interview and Charlie Sheen said HE DID NOT use needles. I've seen Dana question her on similar statements in the past, seems like a bit of irresponsible journalism to me. Anyone else see this?

Also, Charlie Sheen is a dick (IMO) and deserves to be sued for everything he has if it turns out he did not tell his partners about his HIV status.

Who cares?

[Miss Hepburn]

If you know you have HIV, don't tell your partners ...isn't that criminal?
Or at least you could take him to court, right?

He said it is impossible that he could have transmitted the virus, btw.

Because people will watch, just like they will watch if Kim Kardashian has mild Psoriasis or if Bruce Jenner likes to dress in drag.

Not sure what your confusion is. If it bothers you, then become famous.
