Dealscape: Case in point
The unexpected death of L-3 Communications Holding Inc. CEO Frank Lanza is, of course, terribly sad [see story].

(Nasdaq: LVLT - News) today issued the following statement to respond to an incorrect media report concerning the company’s CEO, James Q. Crowe. “There was an incorrect media report today stating that Level 3’s CEO had passed away. The report was in fact incorrect and CEO Jim Crowe is well.”
What a macabre twist to the very same mistake we pointed out last week.
