Happy Days star Scott Baio is receiving backlash for comments about the death of his former co-star Erin Moran.

Baio concludes that Twitter trolls were going after him personally, rather than media outlets because of his personal views.

Per Daily Mail:

‘In that interview I said, “Maybe it was drugs and if it was drugs, drugs and alcohol will kill you sooner than you normally would die,” and then all these goofballs on Twitter started attacking me,’ he said to Levin and Latibeaudiere. ‘I’m sure they’re attacking me because I’m a conservative. These people never attack the press for getting the story wrong about heroin. They attack me.’

Moran was later confirmed to have died from Stage 4 Cancer.
