Michelle Williams Is Hurt By How Nightline Edited Heath Comments

Michelle Williams was devastated by how the show used her recent interview footage.

After the tragic passing of Heath Ledger almost three years ago, Michelle Williams seemed to finally be wearing a somewhat happier countenance. But, hold the phone. Here comes Nightline. That’s right. The show’s editing team just had to swoop in and come dangerously close to ruining it all. In an interview with Kevin Sessums that appeared in The Daily Beast, Sessums asked Williams about Ledger’s accidental death and if she felt in anyway a part of it. She declined to comment on that question in particular, explaining how hurt she was by the way Nightline’s producers chose to cut her three-hour sit-down on the show. She didn’t want her words being taken out of context again.
