I live in Indiana and didn't hear it on the news. Having been born and died here it seems it got little or no mention.
Now it might have been buried under the coming of May and the relentless coverage of the Indy 500, mixed in with the NRA convention here that will have both Trump and Pence attending tomorrow (Friday the 25th).

There. I fixed that for you.

Not required. The word "literally" is much misused.

 

[belamyi]

Not required. The word "literally" is much misused.

More than that: it is a totally superfluous addition. What you wrote is that he "literally" died on stage: the expression is not trite enough, at least not in the laconic context you posted, to give rise to any confusion.

Amazing photographs. I particularly loved the Hong Kong 'Front Door/Back Door' photo with the white plastic chair in the foreground and the Tokyo Compression photos at the bottom.

Maybe you'd prefer a photo of him as a younger man.
