Is Roger Ebert dying? I heard he has cancer..

For more the 40 years, Roger Ebert has guided moviegoers at the box office. But today, Ebert can't speak. Cancer has robbed him of his voice. But despite his illness, Roger Ebert may be more prolific than ever. Cynthia Bowers brings you the story of the man known as "America's movie critic", a man who's battled back from near death with the unwavering support of a remarkable woman.

Roger Ebert, who lost the ability to speak due to cancer tells Cynthia Bowers through a computer about his partner and friend Gene Siskel.

I think hes responding to treatment because he's working full time again as a writer and developing a new show for PBS.
