Death can do wonders for a star's image, with a survey of online sites showing singer Michael Jackson and actor Patrick Swayze were among the celebrities that generated the most positive comments this year. US-based marketing firm Zeta Interactive scanned comments on more than 100 million blogs and websites to determine which celebrities received the best, and worst, “buzz” in 2009 to produce a snapshot of public opinion. Jackson was ranked the best buzzed celebrity of 2009, followed by talk show host Oprah Winfrey, teen country music singer Taylor Swift and Swayze. On the other end of the scale, golfer Tiger Woods' admissions of infidelity garnered him a place on the list of this year's worst buzzed celebrities, although he was third on the positive list before the scandal broke.
