It is easy to judge someone based on ones individual beliefs. That works both ways in judging ones character. You can judge them bad or you can judge them good. In either case you are judging and would not the statement you made apply to both? I believe that holding any individual up as an idol can be very dangerous. You can see this anytime a well recognized person meets with death or other bad situations. I think he has probably accomplished some good but he has also had moments that he could not be proud of. But to hear all of the media and others heap such praise on anyone is a little sickening. The reaction of people to tragic events is very interesting. If a plane full of people crash it is a very news worthy event. That would be the case even if thousands had died on the same day on our highways. The results are the same many people have died. In both cases it is sad events but just worth noting how different they are treated.
