Alex Trebek Hospitalized For A Heart Attack
By Shani R. Friedman
The award-winning Jeopardy! host, who
picked up his latest award at this year's Daytime Emmy Awards, was admitted to
Cedars-Sinai on Saturday after having a small heart attack. Trebek, 71, is said
to be in good spirits. The new season of Jeopardy! - its 29th - is set to begin
taping in July. Trebek had a minor heart attack in 2007 and in 2004 emerged
injury-free following a car accident.
