Re: What famous persons death will have an enormous impact on society?
do we mean "impact on society" or "people glued to the TV"?
I think they are pretty different things.
For the latter, Queen Elizabeth would have to rate up there I would think. That will be pretty big news of course and will rate up there with coverage of the pope's death in terms of TV coverage for much of the world.
For the former I really don't know.
I guess Castro's death will be interesting to see what happens to Cuba afterwards.
And Bin Laden perhaps somewhat too if/when that can be confirmed. Although I can't really say that Saddam's death had a truly huge impact on society and I think it might be stretching it to think that the world is going to suddenly be completely different if Bin Laden is killed.
