    So I read at one point that she had a problem during some throat surgery for her voice. Was that completely inaccurate?

    Also this marks a second comedian to die that has been on Louie. I hope the third isn't Charles Grodin.

    Very sad. :(

    She was definitely one opinionated and funny TV persona.

    It seemed like she was going to pull through there for a bit...but I guess that was wishful thinking.

    Sad. Pioneer for women in comedy, will be missed by many.

    She probably had another 10 or so years of comedy in her. RIP.

    I enjoyed her comedy. Sad to hear it, but she lived an eventful 81 years.

    She was way more lively and youthful than anyone else on that fashion show on E. I can only hope to have that energy (or still be alive) at 81.

    Always loved watching her on TV, the whole I don't give a crap attitude was great to see these when everyone else is trying to be so politically correct.

    Before E! Joan Rivers was a trailblazing female comic. Robin Williams and now Joan Rivers. This is a truly sad year for our comedic stalwarts.
