No, but there was a headline that read: Dewey Defeats Truman, in the Chicago Tribune.
There are links below.
The story goes that the election results were slow coming in, and the editors wanted to go home, so they decided to approve the headline before the results were in. Part of the reason they were confident that Dewey would win is because the pollsters had said so. The pollsters had made use of a new technology, the telephone poll. Instead of asking people face to face as in the past, they decided that calling people would be far more efficient. What they failed to realize is that most people, particularly poor people did not have telephones. Consequently, the pollsters over sampled wealthier people who tended to skew towards the republican party, and the results of the polls proved to be inaccurate.
