I logged on this morning to find Charlie Sheen death notices everywhere except in the news, of course. This was entirely a social media affair. There was even a memorial Facebook page entitled "R.I.P. Charlie Sheen (September 3, 1965 - July 13, 2011)." It had more than 16,000 fans at last count.
You wouldn't know he was dead from reading Sheen's own tweets, however. He's updated several times in the past 24 hours. One fan even got a personal confirmation via Twitter that Sheen is still alive (and incoherent as ever).
Verdict: Are you kidding? Sheen isn't dead. He's indestructible! Beware all invitations to click on links claiming otherwise, by the way they may hook you up with a virus.
