From 2001: Screen Shot of CNN's Cheney Obituary, posted in error
http://homepage.mac.com/sebimeyer/blog/C1079208195/E496274498/

Obituaries for celebrities are usually prepared in advance and held by big newspapers just in case they are needed. CNN.com posted a couple of these by mistake and announced Dick Cheney, Ronald Reagan, and Pope Paul II dead. They were pulled pretty fast but I managed to find them online.

7. I wish I could click on "Life as Queen Consort" myself.
Others from the virtual reaper still ticking include Castro, Ford, Mandela. Smoking Gun has some of them.
