Really? No other news source is reporting it.
I enjoyed the movies he directed even more than the ones he starred in...

I sincerely hope it's a false rumor.

no one's reporting this. you're probably seeing rumors that were circulated a month ago.

CaptStash....
You have stumbled upon a fake hoax web site. The real CNN main web page (www.cnn.com) has no reference to Mr. Eastwood's passing, nor does it link the web page referenced above.

Also note that the date on the hoax web page is 6/18. You'd think that if the story were real, other outlets would have picked up on it by now.
