DUBAI - A Saudi journalist and a member of the royal family denied rumors on Thursday that King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz, in hospital since December suffering from pneumonia, had died, according to messages on social media.
"All that is being reported about King Abdullah's death is far from the truth," Ibrahem al-Rawsa, identified as a journalist at state-run Saudi Press Agency, wrote on his Twitter account.
A member of the royal family wrote: "I give you good news. The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques is fine and there is no truth to the rumors going around."
He was referring to King Abdullah's official title.
King Abdullah was admitted to the King Abdulaziz Medical City of the National Guard in Riyadh in December to undergo medical tests, according to state media.
The royal court earlier this month said that the king was suffering from pneumonia and had temporarily needed help to breathe through a tube, but that the procedure was successful.

Isn’t there a missing plane somewhere for CNN to find?

Ha ha. CNN and CNBC got it wrong.

Abdullah hasn’t been running that show for quite a while so its unlikely to be a major upset.

Well, if he is not dead or even if he is, they should sue CNN for this. Like with the no-go zones.

In the Middle East, never believe a rumor until it is officially denied.

Just saw it on Fox News. Guess Obama will be heading out to a funeral soon. Hopefully no more BOWS are needed.

Um, is it “far from the truth” or is it untrue? Awfully funny way to phrase a denial.

Muslims: God is dead. Only Allah is god.
God: King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz is dead and Allah is Satan, whom I will destroy at the judgement.
P.S. A lot of other Muslims are going to join him if they keep pushing it with all of the violence.
