Question regarding the afterword (spoilers)

[bluesology]

My question is regarding King's "journal entries" at the end of the book. The newspaper article at the very end describing King's death in the automobile accident. My understanding is that King the character only existed in the Keystone world and that once you die there, that's it. Time only moves in one direction and there is no going back - no do-overs. So how can there be a newspaper article describing the accident when in reality Jake saves him from being hit? Is this similar to when Susannah has the dream about the news broadcast announcing the death of Stephen King? Is it meant to be a glimpse for the reader into a possible future but one which hasn't actually happened yet?

Two words: Alternate worlds...

But if Stephen King only exists in the Keystone world, and no other alternate world - then there couldn't be a news article describing his death because it would be impossible to go back and fix it.

I took it all to mean that journalists, the world over, are frigged up....now and forevermore, verily, amen.
