Although they clearly broke my CY-BY-SA license by not sharing their work under the same license and not giving me any attribution, I'm not exactly sure what can I do to take it down, Hiring a lawyer for this is not an option for me considering that I'm just a student on a low budget.

As this comment's uncle pointed out, you can probably find a "fill in the blank" DMCA notice somewhere on the net.

If that doesn't work, many lawyers give free consultations (AFAIK), and there's probably someone willing to take the case in exchange for X% of the settlement.

Send to their ISP. Usually that's very efficient.

That could work, but I think that in the case of a "nationally known tabloid" chances are low.
