Who cares about headlines?
Headlines are written by editors, not reporters, to maximize CTR and minimize length.
You can't fit detail and nuance in a headline. The point is to get people to read the article, not inform.
If people are drawing conclusions from reading just the headline, not the article, then you can safely ignore them. There's no point in getting mad about it.
