Technically, it's the other way round, Quenya was usually only used for formal occasions by Elves and the descendants of the Mumenorians during the third age (when LOTR is set), while sindarian was more commonly used as general speech.
Think of it as Latin and English, with latin very rarely used, while it's offspring, English, is used more readily.
But, nitpicking aside, the Klingon news site, while interesting, isn't really a new concept, as many other sites have taken it in as a language.
It is however, a small step towards the nerd taking over the earth...
