Obviously a joke. It's in an internal staff magazine for goodness sake.

Exactly, an internal joke. The news, particularly the American news people should get over their own self importance and desire to consistently make a story where is not one.

If you don't understand the joke, go back to knock knock jokes or watch some Jay Lennow repeats (the news people, not you A-10).
