Had no idea there was a real Oscar Mayer. And he got remarried at the age of 85 - that's an achievement.

Does this count as a celebrity death?

Just because the media is overwhelmed under stories about MJ and Obama.

Hmm...

Founded by German immigrant Oskar Ferdinand Mayer in 1989...

You would think, but more and more fox, cnn, msnbc and the like's web content is mostly "un-reviewed post as quickly as possible" information. as long as a red line doesn't pop up under the word, it must be okay! post post post!
