I think sometimes there's no article, the whole joke is the headline, and the white square is the blocked ad. Or have I been bamboozled by incompetent coders the whole time?

That's what I thought at first but after the first "you may also like" there's a huge void of white that goes for two screens and then there's more links.

The page source is something to behold. I'm not sure if it's the worst thing I've ever seen or if they've reached a god tier level of parody.
