News Updates:The tech world runs on rumors. But this one we’d rather not have to report: Apple founder and CEO Steve Jobs, who is on indefinite medical leave from his company due to undisclosed health complications, has a mere six weeks to live, according to the National Enquirer.
That’s right, the National Enquirer, not exactly the most reputable publication in the world. So, needless to say, take this particular “revelation” with a healthy dose of skepticism.
Here’s what we know for sure: Photographs of Jobs looking particularly thin while walking into the Stanford Cancer Center in Palo Alto, California, appear in the notorious grocery store tabloid’s most recent issue. The photos’ authenticity has been further supported by celebrity news site RadarOnline, which says it has received confirmation that Jobs is receiving treatment for cancer at Stanford. And the Telegraph ,the only non-tabloid on this list ,reports that the pictures of Jobs were in fact taken on Monday, February 7, at Stanford Center, after the chief executive “had put in a full day’s work at Apple.” (The RadarOnline report says it was actually Feb. 8.)
The photos represent the first concrete evidence that Jobs is in fact suffering from cancer, the details of which Jobs has refused to release.
