From heavy.com:

Art Bell, the radio host, is dead. How did he die? The cause of death is not yet known.

From The Washington Post:

Long before fake news became a political topic, Mr. Bell made a good living encouraging Americans to accept the most fantastic and unlikely tales, to believe that we are not alone, to accept that in a world where the pace of life seemed to quicken with every passing year, there were forces from beyond that were trying to tell us something.

    You don't understand the meaning of quietly confident, do you? I post as AC because I know who I am and who I am doesn't matter. I make a bonfire of my reputation by not having a reputation. I am the exact polar opposite of MICHAEL DAVID CRAWFORD who spams his name everywhere and builds his reputation around his giant ego while disingenuously posting articles on his blog about making a bonfire of his reputation.

        MDC is ego manic. AC is emo depressive.

          I'm glad this place is a small place, with personality. Where else would the initialism of MDC make sense?
