Michael J. Fox Speaks Out After CNN Sparks Death Scare: ‘How Do You React When You Turn on the TV and CNN Is Reporting Your Death?’

How would I react. "This is heavy"

> Michael J. Fox is alive and well, the “Back to the Future” icon assured fans on Threads after CNN sparked a death scare by releasing a video on its content platforms titled “Remembering the life of actor Michael J. Fox.” > “How do you react when you turn on the TV and CNN is reporting your death?” Fox asked his followers. “Do you…A) switch to MNSBC, or whatever they are calling themselves these days, (B) Pour scolding hot water on your lap, if it hurts your fine, (C) Call your wife, hopefully she’s concerned but reassuring, (D) Relax, they do this once every year, (E) Ask yourself wtf ? I thought the world was ending, but apparently it’s just me and I’m ok. Love, Mike.” > A CNN spokesperson commented on the manner in the following statement (via People): “The package was published in error; we have removed it from our platforms and send our apologies to Michael J. Fox and his family.”

F*** Parkinson's

“The rumours of my death have been greatly exaggerated”

Michael is a good guy. Please don’t prematurely cancel him. Hollywood provides plenty of less than desirables to rid itself of.

This is not the death announcement im looking for

Doesn't media have these things prepped and ready for a LOT of people? Macabre but understandable.

This fake news made me realize that this is one celebrity death that will hit hard. Alex P. Keaton and Marty McFly were such a big part of my childhood.

I'm not dead yet. I feel HAPPY, I feel HAPPY! Obviously...

George Burns had great gallows humor as he aged. "I get up every morning and read the obituary column. If my name's not there, I eat breakfast." "I'm so old, I don't buy green bananas" "It's great to be here. At 98, it's great to be anywhere." I'm sorry Michael missed breakfast yesterday.

F*** Parkinsons.

I would call in to be live on the air hopefully durring the report

Back to the Present.

reports of my death are greatly exaggerated. m. twain

That’s pretty heavy

I ain't got not money i ain't got not fame we dont need no credit cards to ride this train But M J Fox being dead would be a hell of a shame (end of the game ?)

I would have called them personally.

My grandmother used to always say that when she'd check the obituaries first in the morning, if she saw her name, she'd go back to bed for a couple more hours.

I’ve found it to be a perplexing problem.

Could always do what [Jeff Goldblum](https://youtu.be/-hhnTlf95Ss?si=gam4prgFklfj_FIm) did

“Goodbye to a great actor 😎”

Personally I’d laugh

Listening to his book "Future Boy" right now. It's a ton of tun if you lived through, or are into, the Back the Future/Family Ties days. Or that that era of pop culture in general.

These days? Start placing bets that I'll rise from the dead.

"That was a... a hoax, right?"

It's CNN lol fake news

I believe Mark Twain had something for this.

Watch his cameo in this season of Shrinking. He was fantastic. F*** Parkinsons.

You don’t wank to it?

I’d rather CNN be investigated over this than over the Iran statement

Wait CNN making false/mistake reporting?!!!! Oh it’s just Thursday 🤷🏼

It’s what networks with zero credibility do, they sold their souls and are now an unserious organization. Legacy media on its way out and a lot of it is self inflicted

"The report of my death was an exaggeration"

He is a little chaos monkey on Threads. He just says ANYTHING.

Try to publicly reenact scenes from 'The Sixth Sense'?

It’s a pretty shaky situation

What kind of question even is this? You celebrate outliving your own death.

He’s the reason we have Trump, go back and get that f****** betting mag so the rest of us can have a normal future, Michael.

Who cares? Any of us could die and CNN wont report it.
