"Boss, I've got a hot story!"
"What is it?"
"It's a picture of a cat."
"Okay, and what's the story?"
"That's the story. It's a picture. Of a cat. And it exists."
"RUN IT!" (Hands over bag with dollar sign on it.)
(I'd actually seen the pic on reddit the day before--who knew it would become headline "news"?!)
