The problem is that he is appatently comfortable making these "jokes" in the first place.
I mean, if he said it completely seriously, and the article was published saying he had, then he later came out and said "It was just a joke guys! Jeez, so uptight!", I'd agree with you, but it was apparently clear from the outset that it was a joke and the headline is likely intentionally written to sensationalize it. The only problem I see here is that someone at rawstory thought this was newsworthy.
They've been doing this since the beginning of the year.
It starts with jokes...
