Not sure what was going on this weekend but my local paper The Charlotte Observer has a supplement called Parade on Sundays, and last Sunday there was Ms Bhutto on the front page with the headline, "Is Benazir Bhutto America's best hope against al-Qaeda?" I thought maybe I hadn't grasped the meaning but no, when I read the article inside by Gail Sheehy, it talked about Ms Bhutto as though she was still alive. No lead-in, no apology, nothing. Needless to say, I'm writing a letter to the paper to disparage their disrespect and incompetence.

that's pretty mad Twirley - any chance you could scan the page? Good luck with getting a reply from the editor... I reckon he/she will be in a bunker right about now, hiding from what I hope is a lot of flak!

Sounded like they were still following the "script" without checking if it still was on plan.
