Mark Levin death hoax spreads on Facebook
Rumors of the lawyer’s alleged demise gained traction on Tuesday after a ‘R.I.P. Mark Levin’ Facebook page attracted nearly one million of ‘likes’. Those who read the ‘About’ page were given a believable account of the American lawyer’s passing:
“At about 11 a.m. ET on Tuesday (November 19, 2024), our beloved lawyer Mark Levin passed away. Mark Levin was born on September 21, 1957 in Philadelphia. He will be missed but not forgotten. Please show your sympathy and condolences by commenting on and liking this page.”
Hundreds of fans immediately started writing their messages of condolence on the Facebook page, expressing their sadness that the talented 67-year-old lawyer and author was dead. And as usual, Twittersphere was frenzied over the death hoax.
Where as some trusting fans believed the post, others were immediately skeptical of the report, perhaps learning their lesson from the huge amount of fake death reports emerging about celebrities over recent months. Some pointed out that the news had not been carried on any major American network, indicating that it was a fake report, as the death of a lawyer of Mark Levin's stature would be major news across networks.
A recent poll conducted for the Celebrity Post shows that a large majority (72%) of respondents think those Mark Levin death rumors are not funny anymore.

Some fans have expressed anger at the fake report saying it was reckless, distressing and hurtful to fans of the much loved lawyer. Others say this shows his extreme popularity across the globe.
