I must admit, it simply never would have occurred to me that the Media stockpiles lists of future obituaries ... until I read this premature ejaculation by Bloomberg:

"The Bloomberg financial newswire decided to update its 17-page Steve Jobs obituary today — and inadvertently published it in the process. Some investors were undoubtedly rattled to see, as our tipster did late this afternoon, the Apple CEO's obit cross the wire and then suddenly disappear. Jobs's battle with pancreatic cancer, and speculation over his health, jarred Wall Street earlier this year and continues to be the subject of speculation."

Once again the media just confirm their ugly reputation for being a bunch of vultures.

I'm no Mac-Head, but this kind of thing really makes me sick.

I can only conclude that Julie Moult is an idiot. Not because she had anything at all to do with Bloomberg's sick cock-up, but because she's fairly representative of the kind of stupid hacks who did.
