Haha, wow, you're pretty fired up about this. I see your point, although I'd stretch it a bit more and say that the only ones who passed away who were "icons" were Ed McMahon and Michael Jackson (while Farrah was famous, I wouldn't consider her an "icon").
Still though, Billy Mays was really famous, though I don't think anyone is equating his fame with that of Michael Jackson or Farrah Fawcett.
