12. Will you believe Wikipedia?

Here's the history edit page of the entry on Johnson:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=George_Clayton_Johnson&action=history

It shows multiple edits today. It looks like people kept adding a death date and more knowledgeable people kept double-checking and deleting.

The most recent revision has the note, "Death notices have been removed from 'Variety' and other sites, so apparently initial reports were wrong."

Another further down says, "Not dead, per son and agency."

And another, "Manager has confirmed he is not dead; the few reports stating otherwise are based on an erroneous Facebook post."

And below that, "I'm going to say this one more time - I don't care who is reporting what. This great man is still living and fighting for his life. It is a great disrespect to the family to continue to use the death date."
