The rumor started in an article in a student newspaper at Drake University in Iowa, USA in September, 1969. A month later, the rumor was discussed on WKNR in Detroit when disk jockey Russ Gibb heard about it from a caller. The Michigan Daily published an article about the rumor two days later. Roby Yonge, a disk jockey at WABC in New York, discussed the rumor in October. Because WABC's signal was strong and could be heard in many US cities, the rumor was picked up by many newspapers and media outlets.

Has anyone talked to Paul McCartney about Paul is Dead?

Informally, Paul said the "Paul is Dead" rumor was a bunch of "rubbish", adding, "If I was dead, I'd be the last to know." Officially, his response was: "Perhaps the rumour started because I haven't been much in the press lately. I have done enough press for a lifetime, and I don't have anything to say these days. I am happy to be with my family and I will work when I work."
