"While many stories on The Onion are meant for pure entertainment, there are a few which mock real-life events.  This article mocked CNN.com's managing editor, Meredith Artley, for the website's choice to make Miley Cyrus the "Top Story" on CNN this morning.

Of course Ms. Artley never wrote the article, as she clarified on Twitter (apparently there are still people on the Internet who don't know The Onion is satire).  But she failed to make any mention of or respond to the very real point the article made, a point I've been talking about for years — quality journalism is dying and we're the ones killing it."
