Thanks to a TMZ knockoff billing itself as "TMZ Today," the rumor that Seinfeld actor Wayne Knight was dead spread around the internet on March 16.
But plenty of people took the swirling rumors as fact.
Wayne Knight is dead !?!?!?!? :(
Wayne Knight is dead. In other news, I can't find my shaving cream.
IS WAYNE KNIGHT REALLY DEAD
Wayne Knight is dead? God damn it
But the actor who played Newman, along with acting in films like Jurassic Park and Space Jam, is actually fine.
Some of you will be glad to hear this, others strangely disappointed, but….I am alive and well!
Does someone have to DIE to trend? Geez! Thanks for all the love everybody. I didn’t know you cared. Glad to be breathing!
You can now go back to drinking your face off in green beer.
