Congratulations to the South African TV station ETV whose news program fallaciously announced a report of George Bush's death. While testing a moving banner headline stating 'George Bush is dead', a technician accidently pressed the 'broadcast for live transmission' button. He is, in fact, still alive. I think. How do you tell?
Further congratulations are in order, however, for their stunning response to the Afrikaans language newspaper Beeld and the media group's website News24.com who broke the story:
"Its unfortunate, because we never comment on their mistakes," said [ETV News spokesperson] Vasili Vass.
Somebody give that man a pay rise.

Perhaps they were hoping that they were psychic?
Possibly! Wishful thinking perhaps...
Seeker? Fancy meeting you here!
