The perils of deadlines

The Dallas Morning News was one of over 140 newspapers who faced a press deadline Tuesday night and incorrectly printed headlines saying the W.Va. miners were found alive.
They have an interesting article online on the deadlines newspaper face daily.
And don't worry this isn't the first time this has happened (with newspapers that is).
The Titanic, Kerry's running mate in 2004, Gore v Bush and others have had wrong headlines and stories published before the latest news was gathered.
