I assume that some Tipsters, being the cross-cultural cosmopolitan individuals
that they are, have already heard the story about how a Chinese newspaper
reported an article from "The Onion" (yes, *that* Onion) as straight news.

One account of the incident is provided here which may or may not be
appropriate for courses covering cross-cultural issues; see:
http://shanghaiist.com/2012/11/28/why_the_sexy_kim_jong-un_story_was.php

It can also be used as an example of why one should always ask for the
sources for materials published in the popular media.
