Wayne Knight, the guy who played Newman on Seinfeld, has been the victim of an Internet death hoax. Websites made up to look like TMZ and Us magazine reported earlier this morning that Knight had been killed in a traffic accident, but it’s not true. Knight is alive and well and tweeting away.
Some of you will be glad to hear this, others strangely disappointed, but….I am alive and well!

Does someone have to DIE to trend? Geez! Thanks for all the love everybody. I didn’t know you cared. Glad to be breathing!

Regrets to my friends and family who were shocked this morning and the family of the woman who actually died in my “supposed” accident.
