The Tribune seemed especially skeptical of reports of Hitler's death. It refers to the leader's "'death' site" in quotation marks, and lower on the page, it ran an editorial from Associated Press Berlin correspondent Louis Lochner:
"I still find it difficult to believe that Hitler is really dead," he wrote.
"Hitler couldn't afford to accept unconditional surrender, so what may prove to be the legend of his meeting a hero's death had to be staged," he went on. "I still cannot escape the feeling that Hitler is some place where nobody expects him to be."
