Timesify
Timesify was the Grand Prize winner of Comedy Hack IV (presented by Cultivated Wit).
Description from Cultivated Wit:
Do you read TMZ, Gawker, or The Onion, but feel ashamed anytime somebody catches you? Now you can change your appearance rather than your behavior. Timesify takes your guilty pleasure reading and cloaks it in the facade of a New York Times article. You get to posture as a concerned citizen while still getting your fix of Kanye drama.

"Genius." — NPR's On the Media
"Sure, Timesify’s popularity may signal that our culture is collapsing around us. But at least people still are embarrassed enough to want to pretend they read hard news. That’s something, right?" — New York Observer
"The implementation is, needless to say, pretty funny...but it also expresses a fundamental truth about Internet media that both readers and creators seem determined to ignore: Everyone claims to want serious news … but in practice, we all click the good stuff." — the Washington Post
"What you need...is Timesify." — Urbandaddy
