The letter is actually an article by satirical site Waterford Whispers News, the Irish equivalent of The Onion, entitled "Did Kylie Jenner Get a Boob Job? Why Am I Being Paid To Write About This Shite?"

In it, the author launches a mouth-fouled tirade against the editor, Siobhan, who asked them to write another story about the youngest Jenner.

"FUCKING probably yeah, but why the fuck do I have to write 500 words on it and 'include 5 pictures from her Instagram or Snapchat'," reads the opening. "Yeah, al-fucking-right Siobhan, thanks for the email. This is exactly why I studied journalism, cheers for hiring me. Fucking dream job my hole."
