Funny thing is the news post wasn't part of the trick. It was posted because violet was fooled by the fake source code.

I thought this joke was a little meanspirited but I applaud the effort that went into it and the fact that it managed to trick the j2o news itself. Even I was actually tricked by this for a little bit (at least in the sense that I bothered to download it) because even though I suspected this was a joke, I also thought that it would be an absurd waste of time and bandwidth to pull this off.
