From Albert Brooks' Twitter feed: "Annette did not get her due today because of Margaret T. I don't need to tell you who was more important to a 12 year old boy."

Same thing happened to Farrah Fawcett (and Sky Saxon) both of whom had the misfortune to die the same day as Michael Jackson.  (Although Michael was not nearly as vile as Maggie was.)

Princess Diana and Mother Theresa is another prominent example of colliding obituaries.
