Bill Cosby is not laughing after a hoax on Twitter that said he was dead.  The comedian told CNN this is the fourth time someone reported he was dead.

Cosby called in to CNN's "Larry King Live" to assure fans he is very much alive.  The actor, who is 73 years old, says enough is enough.  He says Monday's report left one of his friends in tears.

Cosby also rebutted rumors on his own Twitter account.  You can find links to both below.
