I didn't say he changed it, but he links these kinds of misinforming stories all the time.
I originally wrote the article was misleading, but since they correct the misleading headline already in the first sentence, that wasn't really true.
So I changed it to the headline which is what is actually misleading.
But since this is misunderstood, I have now changed it back.
The fact of the matter is that u/return2ozma is flooding lemmy.world with misleading stories with misleading headlines, no matter how much they are the original headlines, they remain misleading. Those are often stories that in no way deserve to be spread.
I have certainly criticized OP for posting things before, but I'm really not seeing the issue here with their actions. They posted an informative article that you just need to read to understand the headline... or just read the one-sentence preview if you click on the post to comment.
It isn't their fault that the headline is deceptive. It's a good article from what is normally a trustworthy outlet and it's pretty much your fault if you don't even bother to do the second of the two things I suggested.

Have you read the article? Honest answers only. I feel lile you're just here to stir. Like the rest of the hivemind downvoting comments that aren't wrong.
No it's because the headline is pandering a lie.
the headline is pandering a lie.
Okay, I'll bite... which part of the headline is a lie?
