The article claims that the website was hacked by a group claiming to be aligned with the Islamic State.

> hey journalists, I am literally the second coming of Jesus, you guys should interview me and tell people I'm the Son of God.

Good journalism would be to report that you are claiming to be Jesus. Which is what happened here; they reported a claim of affiliation, not the affiliation as a fact. It would actually be bad journalism for the reporter to take a position on your divinity (or an unknown groups actual affiliation with IS).

Traditionally good journalism includes credibility checks and at least gives some kind of possibility to see uncertain facts in bigger context.

Just reporting ( alarming / scandalous ) claims have been usually called tabloid journalism.
