Death is not entertainment TV

I was shocked and disgusted at an American citizen, who perhaps "sick" of his long sickness has decided to end his life. Inasmuch as I respect his decision to end his agony for whatever reason, I despise his decision to show us his act on TV. I mean for what and for who? What is he trying to achieve by doing that? Craig Ewert, a former computer scientist from Chicago, ended his life in a Swiss clinic because in Switzerland they allow such decisions. Is this some kind of a publicity stunt? Imagine the impact this can have on young kids. Are we promoting suicide? It's so unbelievable, how far some people can go to achieve limelight. If any law allows you to kill yourself, please do it privately. Why involve the world? And worse via the telly? Has  morality  gone down the tubes? We no longer know what is right and wrong.
