My bet is it would leak so fast that there wouldn't be a window to even try. Media will know definitively within an hour. Just a guess, we'll see how it plays out.

Ah, but the media is clearly incapable of stating the obvious! I look forward to the spectacle of them pretending for a few days he yet lives, while the media plays along out of fear of his corpse. Perhaps they can delay the funeral so much that his body goes William the Conqueror on the guests.

In general yes, but one this one, no: the personal incentives are there. being the one to break the news President is dead would be a feather in someone's cap for all eternity. Haberman is a bad journalist and a bad human being but she won't sit on it. Also people in Vance's orbit incentivized.

Some media yes. Some media still does. And every single media outlet on this planet will be getting tip offs. The ISS newsletter will probably get a tip off.
