Is there a more credible source for this than a tweet?

(Edit: Looks like the articles from Jacobin and New Statesman have been taken down.) From the other thread: https://jacobin.com/2024/06/noam-chomsky-obituary-media-theo... https://www.newstatesman.com/ideas/2024/06/the-noam-chomsky-... https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40720876

All of these taken down now until credible verification

Wife verified on phone (according to screenshot) that he is not dead

Anything that comes out of that person should be taken with a shovel of salt. I did the rounds a few mins ago, and there is nothing on BBC, CNN, France24, DW. For all we know he has passed. I will believe it when I see it in these (or some other credible site), not a joke's twitter/X account.

Is Varoufakis not trustworthy?

Of course not. He's an economist! /s
