Really poor taste, Yahoo!?

On the Yahoo homepage, there is a news story about a special effects technician dying while at work on the new Batman film. Right next to the story are links to movie trailers, film info, etc. WTF??? Someone dies, but let's plug the movie anyway! Am I the only one bothered?

    It probably didn't even occur to the page planners that the story and ad were being run together! I agree that its in poor taste at the very best.

    It's a coincidence. They didn't do it on purpose. Lighten up.
