- jeffl8n, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6I think it's funny that people are blaming Fox News in these comments, but Fox News wasn't the one to post the story...
- Cuja, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3it sucks if true, but even more so if you are simply trying to get attention.
- optimo75, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3denied. Dolly's PR office refute claims. Couple of "1 post" posters posting the same on her forums.
shame on you! - huongdu, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2The link doesn't show any story regarding the death of Dolly Parton and I can't see any other evidence to back this up :/
- gummih, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2If true, then it's sad to see her gone.
Also, odds are that her next of kin do not know yet. I see no gain in pushing this forward until we have facts. - dustedbunny, on 10/12/2007, -5/+4It's Fox News.
Enough said. - disord3r, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1I see nothing at the linked page. I'll agree with dustedbunny... it's Fox News.

I don't personally care for her music, but it would be a shame to see her go. - jonboycubs, on 08/25/2008, -1/+0She would be 62 and not 60 anyway. She was born in January of 1946. So I doubt it is true especially if it was not on cmt.com.
- Cybergrass, on 08/25/2008, -0/+0The PR agent says Dolly Parton is alive
Dolly Parton fans rejoice-- East Tennessee's favorite daughter is
alive and well, according to Pete Owens, Parton's public relations agent.
Owens says his office, just like Channel 10, has been flooded with
calls. WSMV, the NBC station in Nashville, says they have also
recieved calls.
Owens believes the rumor that Parton died from congestive heart
failure may have started Friday night. Apparently, a local high school
announced Parton's death during its football game. Owens does not know
which high school made the unfortunate mistake.
Owens says he spoke with Parton on Saturday, and she decided against
releasing an official statement confirming that she is indeed alive.
