Last night the MTV VMAs paid tribute to departed actor and comedian Robin Williams. "Robin Williams’ death rocked the entertainment world," MTV News noted, and the award show, dedicated to celebrity, took a moment to mark the passing of a bright star.
It was well intentioned. The execution -- photos fluttering briefly over a Coldplay track -- however, was rather botched. And folks on Twitter noticed.
The 23-second tribute to Robin Williams was decried on Twitter as too short, and oddly placed.
