I wonder how long they've been waiting to use that phrase for an article

I'd say the whole world (or at least, the whole world's middle-school age population) has been waiting for that headline since approximately 1782, when Johann Elert Bode proposed the planet's name.
I think the double entendre here is pretty limited to primarily English speakers.

Johann Elert Bode was German, so I'm not sure if the meaning of the word holds there.
