Onion sites are (typically) accessed over HTTP, so the fact that I didn't think HTTP was flawed demonstrates that there's some misinterpretation here.
I'd suggest that you're the one being overly pedantic. "Protocol" doesn't necessarily have to refer to something explicitly labeled as a "protocol".
If the headline had read "half of all web sites compromised" I would never have it thought it was because of some underlying fault with HTTP.
