2:45am: CNN's ticker, verbatim and in its entirety: "U.S. Senator Edward Kennedy dies at age 77." "Kennedy had been fighting brain cancer since May 2008." "Family thanks everyone who gave care and support." "Kennedy served in the Senate for nearly 47 years." "Edward Kennedy hailed as unifying force in Congress." "Stay with CNN for details & other international news."
Fox News ticker, verbatim (in fairness, not in its entirety, but still...): "...incident, Kennedy drove a car off a bridge and into a pond, resulting in the death of passenger Mary Jo Kopechne...Kennedy pleaded guilty to leaving the scene of an accident and was given a suspended sentence...However, doubts about his account of the accident significantly damaged his chances of ever becoming POTUS."
