I may be giving this thing more credit than it's due by referring to it as an article rather than a Prius Prime ad, but it is just a joke.
1) It's wrong. 7.2kW charger is available as an option on the 2019 LT.
2) It totally misses the point in praising the Prime for having a 5 hour standard outlet recharge time. Yes, the 2016-18 Volt has a recharge time double that of the Prime, but it also has a range more than double that of the Prime. If you drive 25 miles in each car and plug them in at the same time to standard outlets, they will both recover those 25 miles around the same time. They're effectively criticizing the Volt for having more range.
3) It pans the Clarity for its driving dynamics, doesn't even mention that as a factor for the Prime, instead talking about its efficiency (a valid point, perhaps the only one), and says nothing about the Volt driving nicer than either.
4) It just glosses over the fact that the plug in tax credit is not equal for all players and fails to mention that the Prime's is about half that of the Volt and the Clarity, while taking the opportunity to slam them for higher MSRP pricing.
