It's quite common in western society (well, the UK & US at least) to make light of tragedy. Sometimes it's done as a way to deal with the horror of the situation, sometimes it done to get ratings. Normally it's not done in bad taste and people can usually see that, but every now and then someone over steps the mark and enters into the realm of bad taste and insensitivity.
It's rare for a famous person to die and a joke or two not to surface in the next couple of days.
