Why Does Bernie Mac Have to Be Dead?
Bernie Mac is in the hospital undergoing treatment for pneumonia, so why is one of the top search terms on the web today “Bernie Mac dead?”
Every time a famous black person is in the hospital, people are trying to figure out if he or she is dead.

Entertainers and civil rights leaders just gotta stay up on their vitamins, push ups and prayers, don’t they?
