Viewers Blast Laughing Carson During TRL Moment Of Silence

Carson Daly shocked television audiences Tuesday after asking fans on MTV’s Total Request Live to observe a moment of silence for the death of Wendy’s founder Dave Thomas who died over the weekend. Midway through that moment, Carson started laughing and blurted, “What are we doing? It’s only Dave, he had a good life!” Furious viewers blasted the host afterwards on music message boards with MO-Xtina saying, “That is so disrespectful and mean. Carson has got the nerve! He made himself look like such a jack***!” ‘Vocals count’ pointed out, “While everyone was quiet he did start laughing into the mic. It was kinda tacky. Bet he didn’t do the same when Joe C (Kid Rock’s friend) died.”
