Did they mean to publish this next month?

Fox News published a story entitled “Padded Lampposts Tested in London to Prevent Cell Phone Texting Injuries” in which it claims:

A London street is experimenting with padded lampposts to protect those not paying attention from banging into them

and points at an ITN story re-posted on Yahoo which adds

The charity Living Streets is so concerned that it has teamed up with the directory enquiries service to test a scheme to wrap up the nation’s lampposts.

Seriously? Are you sure this wasn’t meant to be published in about three weeks, say on April 1st? Oddly enough I can’t find any mention of this on the ITN website or Living Streets’ site.
