Elva månader efter Ledgers död, den 23 december 2008, meddelade Jake Coyle, som skrev för Associated Press, att "Heath Ledgers död röstades fram som 2008 års bästa underhållningshistoria av amerikanska tidningsredaktörer som undersökts av Associated Press". Han hävdade att detta delvis var ett resultat av "chocken och förvirringen" kring omständigheterna kring Ledgers död, samt på grund av Ledgers "arv... i en rundhänt prestation som Jokern i årets största kassasuccé The Dark Knight".

Eleven months after Ledger's death, on 23 December 2008, Jake Coyle, writing for the Associated Press, announced that "Heath Ledger's death was voted 2008's top entertainment story by U.S. newspaper and broadcast editors surveyed by The Associated Press". He claimed that this was partially a result of the "shock and confusion" surrounding the circumstances of Ledger's death, as well as due to Ledger's "legacy...in a roundly acclaimed performance as the Joker in the year's biggest box office hit The Dark Knight."
