Patrick Swayze dead?

Wiseguy · January 10th, 2009, 06:55 AM

I am seeing lots of info on the Internet that says that Patrick Swayze passed away this afternoon from a heart attack. I have checked CNN and it's not saying anything. I hope it's just a rumour.........

Vicious rumor,looks like. TMZ has nothing and you can be sure they have the hospital infiltrated.

Reuters is not saying anything either. I Googled the news and am reading reports that he passed away at 1.38 today from a heart attack. I am also hoping it's not true.

Like I said in the other Patrick Swayze thread:

so not by any official (news) outlets.

There is no such 'news' of this. I googled news and there's nothing. What are you doing?

Geez - I'm not doing anything other than querying info that's on the Internet!!! Check out Patrick's board at IMDB - quite a few posts are announcing his death. I'm a fan of Patrick's and don't live in the US and was hoping to get some correct information. Back off.

Imdb = 'not News'

Good way to make friends,WG.

Just checked Patrick's board at IMDB. There were several posts from fans upset at his death - those posts seem to have been deleted.

Like you've been told-find a better news source.

Issue is, you posted in news ... reported something that isn't news ... and didn't link a news source. Additionally, you posted 'death gossip' which is neither entertaining, satirical, or cleverly written. Time is precious - particularly in the face of all of our pending deaths. Stop wasting it on gibberish.

McJag - nice way to treat a new member to the board.

No, I posted it under "gossip". Like I said, I was asking if anybody else had heard the news.
