"Real News!" Blogger Exclaims

WINNIPEG, MB- Blogger Gaetan Harris has defied all odds and decided to post a bit of real news on his blog site. In a move that shocked the internet world, Harris confirmed that "sometimes there will be real news on the site." This comes after last night's unveiling of a new icon for the blog yesterday evening that left a keyboard dead by molten cheese, and a fan mising and presumed soiled.
The news is purportedly related to the newest Harry Potter movie and its producers as well as two musicians being sued over the name of a band in the film.
From
Sympatico/MSN - The Wyrd Sisters, a Winnipeg folk band, are suing Jarvis Cocker, 2/5 of Radiohead and Warner Brothers for a trademark infringement related to the new Harry Potter movie...
Here's the problem: In J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire there's a band of wizards called The Wyrd Sisters, who play at the Hogwarts Yule Ball. In the movie, due out November 18, Cocker, Selway and Greenwood play these rock 'n' roll wizards, originally under the same name.
Of course, this pissed off the Juno-nominated Wyrd Sisters. Singer and band co-founder Kim Baryluk says if their name is used in the Harry Potter movie it'll mean the end for these folkies.
