I think newspapers usually use single quotes when paraphrasing someone (e.g., http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/24856034/).

I doubt Arrington has taken Journalism 101.



I read single quotes as quoting someone too (and in my reading that's what the article you linked to is doing).

I'm pretty sure you don't "need" quotes to "paraphrase" someone, you could just write the characterization, in, you know, words.

Anyway, I agree: very weak, tabloid-esque title.
