No, it's not far fetched. Newspaper reports of the sucide of celebrities increase sucide rates. http://www.samaritans.org/media-centre/media-guidelines-reporting-suicide is a fairly straightforward media guide on how to handle talking in print in a public forum about suicide.
As of now the article ranks top for googling "high status suicide".
As I mentioned before, the popularity of this forum does not approach that of news media. Not even close. I'm guessing that even similar posts on Reddit rank much higher. And given how balanced the discussion here is, the potential for neg utility is minuscule.
As for your specific search query, it's fragile, as none of the synonyms or similar queries I could think of (not posting them here to avoid accidental indexing) result in the article being anywhere close to the first page in the search results.
If you think that it's good when the article has a low readership than it makes sense to vote it down.
