In 1897 a reporter was sent to investigate the possible demise of Samuel Clemens, a.k.a Mark Twain. After explaining to the reporter that it was his cousin who was ill and not him, Clemens made the famous remark, "The report of my death was an exaggeration."

False reports of well-known people dying have even been made by today's modern media. It has happened to many, including musicians Lou Reed and Paul McCartney, President Ronald Reagan, Bob Hope (twice), and Pope John Paul II (three times).

But it was Abe Vigoda, of Godfather fame and star of the 1970's television show Barney Miller who perhaps paid the largest price for the false announcement. After a 1982 issue of People Magazine referred to him as "the late Abe Vigoda," he struggled to get work for the rest of the decade. Although he is alive and well, and still appears regularly on television, Vigoda’s career was one that came very close to dying of a misprint.
