I knew he was suffering from cancer, but Wiki is the only source I have. Prison Planet will probably run an article later on today.

His name rings a faint bell. Has he done anything of significance besides be Bette Midlers manager? Whats the big deal? Unless of course you are family.
Why don't you do a search and educate yourself? For libertarians, Russo was a big proponent of freedom and nearly a presidential candidate.
You know what pisses me off? Aaron Russo didn't even receive any coverage on Yahoo. If Paris Hilton or someone like that died, it would be the news in every major search engine. The death of Aaron Russo wasn't even a footnote. Screw the mainstream media. I'm glad I don't pay for their crap.
It's a shame buddy. If Paris Hilton had a Brazilian it would be mainstream FOCKS NEWS headlines but as you said Russo doesn't even get a mention. Everyone should see "Freedom to Fascism." Especially Americans.
