Steve Jobs' Death Greatly Exaggerated -- But Is He Well?

In a stunning example of a journalistic screwup, financial news wire service Bloomberg published Steve Jobs' obituary Wednesday. The Apple cofounder and CEO is very much alive.

It's common procedure for news organizations to pre-write obituaries for politicians, sports figures and titans of business, but the premature release of Jobs' obituary is stunning because Jobs has been struggling with pancreatic cancer.
