Here we go again with the Google trends showing people typing in “lil wayne shot” and “did lil wayne get shot” and “lil wayne news” and “lil wayne shot 5 times” and “lil wayne shooting” and “lil wayne got shot.”

But a quick check of Google News for any valid Associated Press articles about Lil Wayne shows that there is no news of a shooting.

Obviously someone is sending fake text messages to a bunch of people trying to get us riled up with fake news.

If it’s not reported by the Associated Press or other valid news organizations — not just blogs — I won’t believe it.
