They used the example of Ted Kennedy in the intro, didn't they? I'm
wondering how close you both came to being asked about that and how
real death reports get handled (I think the news broke a few hours
later).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_Kennedy

Currently has a big "pp-semi-vandalism" template on it, as well as the
"recent deaths" one.
