What hidden agenda, exactly?

Choosing not to discuss the cause of death on a public forum before the deceased is even laid to rest represents some sort of "hidden agenda"? 

NO! It represents respect for his family and friends in their time of mourning.

Some people have a sense of class and decorum and some just don't.
