There is a rumor going around that Oprah Winfrey was found dead in her Chicago home today. However, It is unclear as to whether or not this is true. One report on
digg.com says,
Oprah Winfrey, age 54, was found dead in her home residing in Chicago, Illinois at 8:21 AM on September 20, 2008. She appeared to have a bloody area around her eye, a bullet wound in her stomach and some cuts and bruises up and down her body. They suspect she was beaten in the middle of the night, and shot in the side with a silence handgun. According to the FBI, she was killed anywhere around 1:00-2:00 A.M. this morning.
'I didn't hear a thing, I was up until 4 last night just watching T.V. and reading some books, nothing suspicious was heard or seen, I even went outside for some 'cigs' a couple of times and saw nothing' -Markus Julane, Oprah's close neighbor.
Although many people are saying that they have seen the story confirmed on
CNN and various other local news stations, I have not been able to find any credible sources confirming this news. So, I am going to have to say that I am 99% sure that this story is false. Oprah is as big as the President of the United States and her death would be breaking news on every station world wide. Oprah is just the latest victim in an awful string of Internet
death hoax.
