I thought the same. Should probably read "AOL Is Shutting Down AOL Music And Spinner; Staff Live-Tweet the Whole Thing"

The fact that they didn't write it that way makes it seem like a deliberately misleading headline.

I suspect they just omitted a comma; it should have been "AOL Is Shutting Down AOL Music And Firing Staff, Who Are Live-Tweeting The Bloodbath".
