Of course she's a human being. The question still stands. We know she's going to die. Why is everyone is riled up because they wrote an article on it. I would think the anger would be directed at the content of the article.

I'm sure come election time the papers have articles written for both candidates, both super bowl teams, both world series teams, ect. There is nothing new about writing an article before it happened so you can get it to the presses first. Heck my parents have had their Obituary written up and for a couple of years now.

As you may have already noticed, some choose to abandon clear thinking at a time like this.

Happens all the time and occasionally the wrong one slips out or the story gets out before it should. The BBC once ran a story that the queen mother had died when in fact she was alive and well at the time. CNN.com accidentally posted their "President Reagan has died" story a couple of years before he did. Having stories prepared in advance for something they know is coming is standard operating procedure in the media.
