May he rest in peace! Actually, the Chicago Sun Times is a major newspaper in Chicago. It is not what I assume you are refering to as a supermarket "tabloid".
Wow, that was fairly shocking to hear. I didn't even know he was sick. I think it is fairly safe to say that seeing "Bernie Mac Dead" was the last thing I expected to see coming to TFW this morning. I thought he was damn funny in Transformers and Ocean's 11. He'll be missed, that's for sure. I'll also echo the RIP Uncle Bobby B. that others have said.
well that's unfortunate he was a great comedian it happens in threes, george carlin, bernie mac, who's next? r.i.p. bernie mac
That sucks. I wasn't thinking I would be seeing this announcement so soon. I think he was great in The Bernie Mac Show and Ocean's 11 among others. Best wishes to his family.
