Celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain was found dead early Friday morning. He was 61.
"Anthony was found dead this morning in his hotel room in France. He had hung himself, in his hotel room," Stelter said.

The outspoken chef was reportedly found unresponsive by his close friend, French chef Eric Ripert. The network said he was working on an upcoming episode of his show "Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown."

I didn't like his politics, but his show was unique and sometimes amazing.

I never followed him enough to know his politics but his shows were interesting. Seeing cultures through food!

Parts Unknown was one on my favorite TV shows and the only CNN show that I would watch. Food, drink and travel - what's not to like.

Supposedly he was a reformed heroin addict. When I first saw the news I thought he might have fallen off the wagon and OD'd so I was surprised to see he hung himself.

Sucks that he took his own life. Great shows and enjoyed reading his books.

Mental health issues affect everybody. No one knows the demon that lurks inside someone's head. It doesn't matter what his political belief is, it is sad that someone is in so much pain and trouble that he has to end his life. May he rest in peace.
