I don't know how production booths work, so I don't know HOW something like this could happen. But, it did. And, if it was somehow intentional, you can bet that the personal responsible is looking for a new job.

You can't accidentally post it if someone didn't create it. And there was no reason for anyone to create it now other than wishful thinking. Even if they keep these kinds of templates for public figures so they can put them up quickly if something happened, there's no reason to fill in a year of death until the death happens, it's an easy one to add quickly.

True.
Matt Whitlock, former Deputy Chief of Staff and Communications Director for Orin Hatch has said that even though Hatch is younger than RBG, he would routinely have major outlets request advance obit information. It's not uncommon.
And, then we can't forget about this little mistake............(https://twitter.com/senorrinhatch/status/1021592558756134912?s=21)
You probably didn't even know about it because Hatch made a light hearted moment of is...........No outrage.

Very naive statement. All good newspapers have obituaries prepared and ready to run. They have done this for years. I'm sure the same with networks.

It was a terrible mistake. They corrected it and apologized immediately.

for the SC, she is dead. she is not coming back.

Exactly this

I wonder if Rumpus will tweet "Fox fake news"!

Fake Fox "News" owes the American people an apology!

I'm sure it was planned, and we'll be seeing it again.

Fox is the Russian-Trump News Network.

I guess they think wishing makes it so. They should be fired.

Fire them.

I’m sure it was an “accident” and not a way to pump up flagging support among Trump’s base.
