Reportings of Bill Cosby Death and CNN Screen Shot Picture

Bill Cosby, legendary comedian and actor, is being reported dead from a heart attack. This latest celebrity rumor started when someone on Twitter allegedly posted a fake CNN screenshot that reports the news of Cosby’s demise.

I did a search on CNN’s website and could not find any reports of this. I’ve searched other sites and have found people reporting that he is and that he isn’t dead. There are no official reports stating that he has passed away.

This appears to be one, in a long list of celebrity death hoax rumors on the internet. It is horrible that people do this. I hope that CNN can do something about the fake screenshots that keep appearing on the internet. There are people that actually believe these to be true.

There is a report floating around that Bill Cosby was found passed out in a chair while watching the television. It is reported that his wife, Camille found him and called 911. It goes on and says that the EMT’s report indicated a cardiac arrest and that he was pronounced dead at Baystate Franklin Medical Center on February 6, 2010. None of this has been confirmed by official means. As of right now, this is just a rumor.
