Just Jack Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 (edited) Oh, wait, no they didn't.... Quote For a brief moment this week, startled readers of a French news site had to grapple with the apparent demise of Queen Elizabeth II of England; Pelé, the Brazilian soccer legend; Clint Eastwood; Brigitte Bardot; and dozens of other celebrities and world leaders. As it turned out, the website of Radio France Internationale had mistakenly published about 100 prewritten obituaries for prominent figures. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/not-dead-yet-news-site-mistakenly-runs-dozens-of-v-i-p-obituaries/ar-BB1b5JxL?ocid=msedgdhp Edited November 17, 2020 by Just Jack 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
