The 2023 edition of TCM Remembers is now up. Soaps-wise, it includes Sharon Farrell and Shirley Ann Field. (Also includes some expected big names, i.e. Matthew Perry, André Braugher, and Tina Turner, to name just a few more.) Set to a cover of the Tom Petty song, "Learning To Fly"; the artist covering it is Christina Perri:

DAYS OF OUR LIVES today, In Loving Memory screen for Phil Sogard, a director of GH under Gloria Monty, and with DAYS since the 1990s. 

Talked to Scott McKinsey, director at DAYS, and he confirmed his passing & that his service is being held this weekend. 

Then found this which looks similar to Legacy.com

He passed today, 12-22, at the age of 90.

"snbc13.com" is not a news site.  It's a fake site.
More on them here:
https://www.npr.org/2023/04/14/1168389685/what-could-make-a-hoax-call-reporting-a-school-shooting-worse-social-media

That's not an actual obituary.  It's a copy/paste from imdb or wiki of his work history, with some generic sentences thrown in, maybe via a.i. or just someone filling out a form.

When googling Sogard this morning, I found a bunch of fake obits all structured the same way.

Phrases in their fake article that show that it's fake news that could be written about any celebrity:

"has allegedly passed away. He was announced dead on Twitter today"

"What happened? Learn more about Phil Sogard obituary and death."

"The circumstances surrounding the cause of Phil Sogard's death have not been made known to the public at the time of this publication. However, his fans have confirmed the heartbreaking news. Thoughts and prayers are with his family during this difficult time."

"The family will release an obituary and funeral arrangements for Phil Sogard."

_______
I have seen fake obits of other people that were very similar.

    • Is there anything in print or fan lore or info about Don Stewart & temperament or behavior? Of course my brain could be playing tricks on me. 
    • “On ERICA versus RACHEL, Erica was a very unique character. ... Rachel was a lower-class Erica, her mother was a cleaning woman, and her goals were not nearly stratospheric as Erica’s. Rachel just wanted to marry Russ or somebody with money. What Erica and Rachel have in common is they thought if they could get their dream, they’d be satisfied. But that dream has been very elusive.”– Agnes Nixon, Creator, ONE LIFE TO LIVE, ALL MY CHILDREN, and LOVING So my takeaway from this, plus knowing the characters, is that both Rachel & Erica schemed for acquisition. They wanted to acquire romance, husbands, prosperity, a kind of low-level fame or notoriety.  Am I correct in thinking that Carla schemed for safety, camouflage, to keep from getting caught & so for survival? Or did she also scheme for things similar to above?

    • Paula and Jeanne’s first time writing Alex and Stephanie. It didn’t seem like there were any changes in Alex at all lol but I can’t help  but think that that’s more on RSW than the writing. I didn’t see a big change with Stephanie either, but I did enjoy her scenes with Kayla, whose character has gotten so much stronger since last week. I hope we get to see a lot more of their relationship, and their relationship with Steve as well. As for Steve and Shawn stealing the drug to try to save Bo, idk. I don’t dislike it, but I just don’t know lol but I also think that it is time for Steve to pass the torch on to the next hero.  And finally, Javi showed some kind of spark! I was a little worried in his first scene today that he was going to continue to be so obsessed with Leo, but him demanding that Leo drop the investigation into Rafe and Gabi could actually be pretty interesting. I don’t think that would’ve happened under Ron. And if we’re forced to endure Javi/Leo, let them at least have some kind of actual conflict, instead of the forced, biased crap that we were subjected to. And speaking of Leo, one year ago today, he got Dimitri’s letter

      Btw, why is Gabi so beholden to Javi? Cousin or not, if I was her, the minute he said to her, “If he goes, I go”, I would’ve been like  Also, are they going to go there with Philip and Gabi? I’d prefer that than Gabi getting involved with Alex. 
    • She does look good in blue. I wish they'd do more with her hair, change it up the way JMW does now and then
