President Bush postpones National Drug Control event after Heath Ledger death

Heath Ledger as Ennis Del Mar, Brokeback Mountain character

President Bush postponed an event to promote an advertising campaign on preventing prescription drug abuse. The President had been scheduled to talk this morning January, 23 2008, about the Office of National Drug Control Policy's television advertising campaign to prevent prescription drug abuse and raise the awareness of abuse of prescription painkillers. "We felt it would be better not to hold the event today given the tragedy of yesterday's passing of the beloved actor, we did not want anyone to think we were trying to link into that story in any way," Said White House Press Secretary Dana Perino. The event has been rescheduled because it fell just a day after Ledger was found dead in his New York apartment.
