That's a great subject line - the notional news. Of course, it retrieves national news, hoping to bring in the non-speller searchers.
This seems like a great name for a parody website. Surprisingly there isn't current and active a website, facebook account or recent twitter account that has this name. There's an account from 2006 in New Zealand that's a parody party.
The actual retrieval that got my attention was the notional news from The Times of India. Yes, notional is in its headline:
Celine Dion drops untold bombshell (small letters: ad). (ET, Wednesday, February 26, 2020) - Celine, the most popular Canadian singer, has decided to retire. Today, Celine tells us about the scenes and why she made this shocking decision.
The project Celine is supposedly referring to is the "weight loss product called BioLogik Keto Forcera. The celebrity has spent the last two years developing a range of very powerful and effective weight loss products that she believes are the solution for those who do not want to spend time at the gym."
Can Celine Dion be promoting a diet pill? This is a loose linkage to her prominence in the news for significant weight loss showing painful pictures of her from the Fall looking emaciated, wearing strange high fashion clothes that accent her thinness. These pictures are always popping up. They are weird and scary so grab one's attention.
There must be a reputable source to tell me about her weight loss. It would be Woman's Day - it says she attributed her trimmer figure to her new interest in ballet. That was September 2019. She also said this in a TV interview. and it has been repeated consistently - ballet has resulted in her "trimmer body."
The internet is still a free for all, and using a celebrity's name can bring viewers that wouldn't come to one's site. I find more news articles that link Celine Dion's name with a keto product for weight loss - but there is no content on her. It is News-ontime with a Fox News Channel logo. It says that two sisters Anna and Samantha Martin have a keto weight loss product and it was backed by Shark Tank Judges. This turns out to be a website where one can't access Fox News and one keeps getting redirected to the site with its crazy before and after pictures of 61 days of dieting with the pill. So many scams and tricks at one's fingertips on the internet.
I was able to easily find Dion's endorsements, charities and causes - they are listed at celebrityendorsers.com. I realize that this is a medium irritation - a diet pill scam. Remember the pornography websites that take celebrity heads and photoshop them on nude bodies? Yikes.
And our images today? Yes - these might be scary too. They are 2 of the Christmas wreaths completed for the 2020 Fantasy of Trees. We've completed 12 so far - with 8 to go. This is a perfect time to make them while the snow and cold weather keep one out of the garden. We might need to get these done quickly - the snow drops were blooming yesterday along with Witch hazel. Looks like we may have an early spring - I should go look for that singular early crocus that the squirrels planted in front of the little garden shed a few years ago. They left one behind, and took the hundred other ones and planted them next door creating a lovely spring meadow garden.
