From www.thesmokinggun.com :

“APRIL 16–While all news organizations prepare obituaries in advance of the deaths of famous individuals, the folks at CNN inadvertently gave the Internet-surfing public a chance to preview how the network’s web site would note the demise of Vice President Dick Cheney, Ronald Reagan, and a few other prominent figures”

“I’m not dead!”
“'Ere, he says he’s not dead!”
“Yes he is.”
“No I’m not!”
“He isn’t?”
“Well he will be soon. He’s very ill.”
“I’m getting better!”
“No you’re not. You’ll be stone dead in a moment.”

And I’m stealing it.

I’d swear that the “show signature” box was checked…
