The NYT and Stove-Top Stuffing: News you can use (two weeks later)

Today the NYT carries an obituary on the front page reporting the death of Ruth M. Siems, the inventor of family-favorite “stove-top stuffing,” a Thanksgiving favorite. Siems, 74, had a heart attack at home in Indiana, on Nov. 13, 2005. Hmm. It’s now Nov. 23, 2005. Looks like some savvy editor somewhere saw the story and realized that they’d have some Thanksgiving synergies on their hands if they only waited ten days to actually run the story.
