Ah not according to most websites... it's a rumor going around the internet.

Unless he died in the last few hours, the rumor of his death has been floating around since he fell ill and his family has been saying no, he's very much alive, sick, but alive.

FoxNews just had a doctor from the hospital on, confirming it. [sm=dunno.gif]

Yeah! The AP just grabbed it too! http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080809/ap_on_en_mo/obit_bernie_mac

The rumor's been in my inbox, oh geesh like 6 times in the last week or more? How awful for his family to have everyone saying he's dead when he's so ill.

Apparently, this time, he DID actually die in the last few hours!

Yea, it sucked last week with all the rumors going around about his death.  But sadly this time it is true

It saddened me when I heard this on the radio today.  His fight against sarcoidosis was one of the things that inspired me to fight back against mine and to train as a jouster.  




subeos -> RE: comedian Bernie Mac dead at 50 (8/9/2008 8:02:35 AM)

[&o] Yeah, pretty sad. Since i dont watch tv, i didn't know about the rumors. So sad, he was a good actor, comedian and person. RIP

Thats a shame to die so young.

[:(]  I'm floored by his death. So young and so talented. I hadn't heard about the rumours though.

I was shocked to hear this on the news this morning.  Wowser.  I loved The Bernie Mac Show. What a talent.




Arpig -> RE: comedian Bernie Mac dead at 50 (8/9/2008 12:57:21 PM)

Never enjoyed his comedy, but am sorry for his family all the same




pissthirstysub -> RE: comedian Bernie Mac dead at 50 (8/9/2008 2:42:41 PM)

I loved the Bernie Mac Show and listening to his interviews. He always seemed so intellegent. I am pretty shocked.




Lorr47 -> RE: comedian Bernie Mac dead at 50 (8/9/2008 6:35:10 PM)

Bernie Mack was just on TV commenting on how the reports of his death have been greatly exagerated.




Vendaval -> RE: comedian Bernie Mac dead at 50 (8/9/2008 7:04:56 PM)

Oh no!  I just saw this on the evening news.  I enjoyed his show and his work in film.  RIP Mr. Mac.  Prayers for your family. [:o]
