NYT vs Onion on Intelligent Design

NYT says:
Proponents of intelligent design say biological marvels point to the hand of a higher being, but mainstream scientists are unconvinced.
The Onion says:
Evangelical Scientists Refute Gravity With New 'Intelligent Falling' Theory
Score one for the Onion - or two, actually, since the NYT piece is second in a two-part series on the subject, altogether weighing in at maybe 3000 words, while the Onion gets the point across in a single headline.
