I love how CNN.com articles take all of 3 minutes to read yet they must offer us three line summary highlights at the top.

Story Highlights
- Zach Galifianakis part of a new breed of comedian
- Galifianakis has no artifice in his act; it's a "free-for-all," he says
- Performer has been seen in "Comedians of Comedy," YouTube videos

CNN: This guy exists!

But I guess that's profiles for you.

Yeah, that to me is hilarious, and begging for parody. The bullet points would be fine for an article about Medicaid reimbursement or salmonella outbreaks, but for this article?
