I don't know.. I think people get off on it because they have nothing to do. Why does anyone hate on people? I would say jealously, ignorance, and just having a lot of hate and ignoring the person for who they truly are ( seeing the good qualities of them).
I think that there were some people that didn't like him even before he died. I really love him because he is a true legend and I wish everyone else can see past all the media crap about him and see what contribution he has made in history.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest.
