Not that Apple Insider was ever journalism, but this obsequious adherence to promoting Apple's image is insidious.  This site has gone from an interesting and sometimes intelligent forum for a group with common tech interests, to a place pervaded by its dogmatic fixation with depicting Apple as god-like perfection.  It's a sad little bubble of militant fanbois for whom even the most oblique criticism of Apple is denounced as trolling, or dismissed as (at best) irrelevant and (at worst) conspiratorial.  The Apple users I grew up with shudder at the Orwellian purification of thought demanded by present-day Apple users.  You've taken "think different" and made it "think nice about Apple."  Fake news items like this are an embarrassment, and a symptom of groupthink and intellectual bankruptcy.
