This story highlights a key problem with science reporting. How many people are going to read this story correcting the original story? A small fraction. Every time there's some sensational discovery it's all over the media, but whenever there's a retraction or the study fails to be replicated (another huge problem in modern science), the retraction never gets media attention. It's pop science at its worst.
