An Oniony news moment

From an article on the discovery of a previously unknown Mozart piece:

Ulrich Leisinger, head of research at the International Mozarteum Foundation in Salzburg, Austria...says there is no doubt that the single sheet was written by the composer and that it is "really important."

I read that sentence and I can't stop myself from thinking that the next paragraph is going to sound like this:

Leisinger characterized himself as "stoked" about the discovery and expressed his belief that the international classical music community would consider it "fucking awesome," as he did.

(Thanks to Lorinne for the link.)

I think the Onion would have gone with a less fake-sounding name than "International Mozarteum Foundation".
