    Seems yet another retraction. Given all that (the 404s, the edited wiki) I'm thinking there were initial reports he died, but he resurfaced at a hospital in Brazil.

    Yep, also in the wiki history very much edits/reverts ... At the time I edited: The italien version still shows the date: Noam Chomsky - Wikipedia[^]

      Some reports say he died. Others say he's at a hospital in Brazil. The New Stateman's page for it is 404, as was another outlet I checked.

          Thanks. Yeah it was bizarre. I normally don't get taken in by hoax death reports, though I don't think this was that, as I normally do some due diligence using google if it looks like it even might be false. I thought so here when I first heard about it, so I started looking through google and I was getting hits from reputable news outlets, but when I clicked on a couple I got 404s for those links. I would expect a retraction so I wasn't entirely sure what happened. The whole thing was bizarre.

            A few years ago, a now inactive member of CP "killed" a (still very much alive) famous English cricketer on Wikipedia. That, and a few other escapades, did not help to advance his desire for elected office, shall we say. But I do miss his wit occasionally.
