Notice that I wrote "the article"?  Unlike you, I took the time and
effort to read the article, so I could write knowledgeably about it. 
It's not my fault that you are to lazy to do the same.

As a trained investigator, I doubt anything that contains a blatant
error.  That model of Apple TV has been a discontinued model for almost
four years, and there are stock photos of the current model available. 
Because the writer didn't do even the basic research to include a photo
of the current model makes me doubt that he did much of any research at
all.
