Has the curtain fallen on one of comedy's most enduring figures? Reports of Jay Leno's demise are greatly exaggerated, a stark reminder of how quickly misinformation can spread in the digital age.
Social media was recently ablaze with rumors of Jay Lenos death, fueled by a viral hoax that swept across Facebook. A fabricated "R.I.P.
