More than a week after “Saving Private Ryan” actor Tom Sizemore, 61, suffered a brain aneurysm (a stroke), and was “recovering comfortably at home,” a representative told media that the actor’s family is “now deciding end of life matters.”

That doesn’t sound too good.



“Today, doctors informed his family that there is no further hope and have recommended end of life decision,” Sizemore’s manager Charles Lago said in a statement issued Monday night. Well, if doctors say there’s no more hope, that often means there’s a 100% chance of recovery. Just saying.

But media can’t even wait till they pull the plug. The Associated Press continued media’s new celebrity-bashing trend by ending its article about Sizemore by describing an unverified 2017 ALLEGATION of sexual assault — with no charges filed. Nice folks, these corporate media.

Tom will leave behind twin boys, 17.
