NEW YORK (AP) - Patrick Swayze is angry about tabloid reports that say he doesn't have long to live. The actor, who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer earlier this year, issued a statement Tuesday affirming that so far he is winning his fight against the disease and responding well to treatment.
Says Swayze: ``They're reporting that I'm on my last legs and saying goodbye to my tearful family! ... It's upsetting that the shoddy and reckless reporting from these publications cast a negative shadow on the positive and good fight I'm fighting.''
Swayze, who stars in the upcoming A&E series ``The Beast,'' says such coverage is tantamount to ``emotional cruelty,'' and angers him ``when hope is so precious.''
