Not to discount Businessweek's release, but the reality is that media organizations devote enormous amounts of time to prepare for the imminent death of a popular/famous figure. I'd bet that weeks of effort were put into what consists of Businessweek's release on Jobs' death while Steve was alive. What they produced doesn't come together in a couple days.

Remember the Bloomberg accidental 17 page obituary release for Steve Jobs in 2007?

Don't discount the media's efforts when being the first with the "extensive article" on the death and past history of someone important puts you first out of the gate.
