I know. There was one other site with the story, but they wanted personal info to log in to get it. They must think I was born in a cabbage patch.  |

I agree, they should apologize and run a correction in thier rag magazine!
Very glad to see you are doing well Bill!

The internet was flooded with "the bad news" this morning. Fortunately, the good one followed soon -- and it finally made me join. Why wait for second hand information??
"Sir Shat", all my good wishes, health and happiness be with you! |

Where possible, I've posted the following response in the talk-back or feedback section of those news articles. The "tinyurl" thing is actually a hyperlink to this thread that readers can cut-and-paste into their browser address field (because regular URLs might be rejected by some talk-back filters)...
William Shatner has responded to these 'news' reports, at his official website...

Some news sites may have difficulty finding this notification thread on their own. Here's a response from an NBC affiliate...
Thanks for writing in to NBC 5. I checked his official page before
putting up that story and didn't find anything on it about this. I find
his page hard to navigate but I did look! I'll update the story! Thanks
again for writing in to NBC 5.

Here in Germany the tabloid press seems uninterested in true news. I wrote two of them (which I find on googlenews), but they don't respond AND they still have their article on their websites.  |

I just heard this story reported on the radio. At least they had the decency to admit that their source was the Enquirer!
I'm glad I knew the truth before...I would have been very very upset otherwise.

Maybe that is their problem.
Yep! I laughing also!  |

That would be harsh! The reporter responded promptly and courteously to my heads-up.
It's common for entertainment reporters to just copy-and-paste stories from newswire services. Unfortunately, some outlets tend not to do much (if any) fact-checking. In this case the big culprit is BANG Media International (a.k.a BANG Show Biz), which is spreading the National Enquirer story.

So...let me get this straight....
Bill NEVER went into the Hospital for a Hip replacement ?
Yet Cedars-Sinai Medical Center is saying he did on January 25 ?
That's not like them to leave themselves open to a suit like that.... |
