So if this is correct, what is the difference between a black hole and a naked 
singularity?

The article describes an event horizon shrinking or growing in relation to a 
black hole's apparent horizon, but isn't Hawking saying that the apparent 
horizon is real and the event horizon just doesn't exist? In which case how can 
a black hole have both?
