I read that on the internet.

3. It's not a hoax. Mediamass is a comedy site. Every

major news source is reporting that Reed is dead.

5. cnn hasn't

[morningfog]

7. Given CNN's recent track record, it doesn't mean much.

Rolling Stone has it. Until they retract, I will continue to mourn.

12. CNN'll say the jury's out until the guy's great-grandchildren die of old age anyway. (nt)

15. Not your fault--you were bitten in the ass by a "humor" site that isn't funny.

Those, like lies, are popping (I almost said pooping, and that would work too) out all over the internet these days.

Comedy only looks easy--I wish some of these assclowns making "jokes" like this realized that.

[MADem]

17. Yes, indeed. nt
