This isn't being reported by any other source yet, but if it's true, it's a real bummer. He was a very funny actor, although by all accounts he eventually hated being associated with Newman. I read somewhere that he was having a bad day once and some guy stopped him on the street for the millionth time to say the line, and he punched the guy in the face.

Reported by TMZ and US Magazine... and no one else.

Hmm....

This has to be fake.

TMZ is usually spot on with this stuff.  But a lot of the links on the side show a bunch of fake NEWS stories.

Has Dodson arrived at the scene yet?

/window seat
 
2014-03-16 10:59:16 AM  
Wait a minute.   tmz.today? It's not on the main TMZ site...

That Guy...From That Show!: Lower on that page it says Betty White is dead too.


Also says that Bieber got Selena Gomez pregnant.

Yeah, that's not the real TMZ website

Nobody cares.

Their source is ebuzzd.com. Check them out; they report shocking deaths and maimings that no one else is reporting.

Of course social media has already began to buzz about the lose of

Nice editing

Subby shoulda been clued in by the fact that the TMZ logo didn't appear when he previewed it before he submitted it.

/Subby...did preview it before he submitted it, right?

It was reported first at usweekly.us, or something like that, and this one is tmz.today.  The "about" page for tmz.today is a 404 page.  Actually, no link at the bottom of the tmz.today page goes anywhere but a 404.

the page wants to link to ebuzzd.com, which is a real website, but is crappy tabloid fare.

This is likely a hoax

Heh, I like add on to the headline.

None of the "about" links on the site work either. Hopefully we didn't all just get sent to a malicious site.

Oh, and hey! The real US Magazine is at http://www.usmagazine.com/.
