I think Queen Elizabeth probably had the most rewritten obituaries, because papers had to have something ready to go her whole long-ass life.
Henry Kissinger, who got his shit in and then lived far too long, may have had the most untouched obituary drafts ready to go when he dies hours ago.
I like this one by Spencer Ackerman.
Nixon’s White House counsel, John Erlichman, recalled Nixon talking about “Jewish traitors” in front of Kissinger, including “Jews at Harvard.” Kissinger would assure the boss he was one of the good ones. “Well, Mr. President,” Erlichman quoted him responding, “there are Jews and Jews.”
In addition to everything else, what a sellout.
