A new poll finds 60% of likely voters believe the barrage of negative coverage of President Trump likely influenced the attack.'Wtf': Still-living Michael J. Fox reacts to CNN 'in memoriam' video
Beloved actor Michael J. Fox was clearly confused to find out he was allegedly dead, according to CNN, a day after he was on stage at a television festival.
Fox, 64, known for "Back to the Future" and "Teen Wolf," took to social media on Thursday to tell followers to relax, because people think he has died every single year.
'I thought the world was ending, but apparently it's just me.'
Fox had just appeared at PaleyFest on Wednesday, making a surprise cameo on stage in Los Angeles. His own surprise, however, would come the next day when CNN began circulating a web article and video package claiming that he had passed away.
"Remembering the life of actor Michael J. Fox," CNN wrote in an apparent screenshot of the piece, accompanied by a three-and-a-half minute tribute video.
'Doing great'
This prompted TMZ to reach out to Fox's team, who replied to confirm that he was in fact alive.
"Michael is doing great. He was at PaleyFest yesterday. He was on stage and was giving interviews," they reiterated.
The real truth-telling was left to Fox though; he took to his Threads page (Meta's version of X) to ponder his options.
"How do you react when you turn on the TV and CNN is reporting your death?" he asked, before taking a shot at the network formerly known as MSNBC.

"Do you ... A) switch to MNSBC, or whatever they are calling themselves these days, (B) Pour [scalding] hot water on your lap, if it hurts [you're] fine, (C) Call your wife, hopefully she's concerned but reassuring, (D) Relax, they do this once every year, [or] (E) Ask yourself wtf?"
All of the above
Fox apparently did not get the 2025 memo that MSNBC changed its name to MSNOW, which the Guardian described as a somewhat forced acronym that stands for "My Source for News, Opinion and the World."
The original name identified a now-defunct partnership between Microsoft and NBC, which launched in 1996 as a combination of the Microsoft Network and NBC. MSN was also the colloquial name of a popular online messenger service released in 1999.
Fox concluded his remarks by saying, "I thought the world was ending, but apparently it's just me and I'm ok. Love, Mike."

Dead reckoning
CNN later issued a statement through a spokesperson that said, "The package was published in error," NBC News reported. "We have removed it from our platforms and send our apologies to Michael J. Fox and his family."
Fox's appearance in L.A. was to promote his TV show "Shrinking," which just finished filming its third season.

Fake news at it again: CNN Town Hall packed with Democrat activists
CNN recently held a town hall where members of the community could express their concerns to Minneapolis officials like Mayor Jacob Frey (D) — but with a little digging, it was revealed that all the randomly selected citizens happened to be Democrat activists.
“President Trump’s comms director, Steven Cheung, did some digging. … Turns out they’ve all donated to ActBlue. Isn’t that incredible?” BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales says on “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered.”
“ActBlue, the same Democrat PAC that tried to profit off of Alex Pretti’s death,” Gonzales says, reading a text message Americans received from the Democrat platform: “Alex Pretti is the limit. Gov Walz: END THE OPERATION. Stand with us! Donate $50 for 200% MATCH.”
“They’ve never met a terrible tragedy that they have not wanted to profit off of. That’s the ActBlue that we’re talking about. I’m sure it was total coincidence. I’m sure it was a total coincidence that all of these people just happened to be Democrat activists,” she comments.
“These outlets are so irredeemable. They’re actually, like, they’re paying other people to come on the air and spew wild conspiracies. They call us the conspiracy theorists, by the way," she says.
And in one recent segment on CNN, ex-MSNBC host Tiffany Cross argued that the reason there has been less coverage of the Proud Boys is because all of the Proud Boys went to join ICE.
“There’s a reason why we have not seen a resurgence of the Proud Boys, and that is because I believe a lot of them are likely made ICE officers. Again, I’ve said this on the show before. I’ve not seen any deep-dive reporting into who these people are, but they certainly adopt a lot of the ideology, a lot of the tactics, a lot of the violent tactics, a lot of the wearing masks,” Cross said.
“Did you just say ICE officers are militia?” CNN’s Kevin O’Leary asked, shocked.
“I think you’re stretching a little bit,” he added while she doubled down.
“It’s just something she just concocted,” Gonzales comments, laughing, “in her tiny little mind.”
