Steve Jobs – Dead or Alive?
Let me be clear after that teaser of a headline – Steve Jobs is, as far as I know, alive today. But there sure was a lot of stir created by Bloomberg Financial when it’s wire service inadvertently released an updated obituary of Steve Jobs.
This may be placing fuel on the Jobs’ health fire. I recently wrote about Mr. Jobs’ health here with the discussion of what ‘bug’ (the official stance of Apple) did he have. So to make a mistake like this can easily cause a huge stir with Apple stockholders.
Bloomberg has apologized for the mistake and released a public retractment of the obituary. But people will continue to watch Mr. Jobs’ health closely.
A tip of the hat to Gawker.com who has published the entire updated obit (read that for fun here).
