The fake message about the death of the 44 year old german racedriver Michael Schumacher, which was spread via Twitter on Sunday, created a huge reaction of the media. But no fear, Schumacher is fine.

Since Sunday (29th December) there is a rumour on Twitter about the asserted death of Michael Schumacher. It created a heavy discussion in the social networks.
In social networks there are often fake information spread. Many people were announced dead, falsely. Yesterday was michael schumacher "brought under the" ground.With a "deadly" tweet:
"Michael Schumacher ist von uns gegangen. RIP"
-> "Michael Schumacher has left us. RIP."
Written on Sunday, 29th December 2013, about 14.15. One hour later:
"Michael Schumacher is dead. the next of kin confirming"
According to some news the death was demented from the next of kin. Officially confirmed.
After that the wrong message was spread from radiostations and so on. On the late Sundayevening a spokesman confirmed that Michael Schumacher is not dead.
It was an experiment of a project to test reactions of the media.
^--- WHAT DA HELL IS THIS?
