this is a disinformation campaign to make us look nuts and distract from what is really going on.

I don't know about this particular story but I agree with your sentiment in general.

there is a lot of that going on and people just run with some of the most outlandish stories

this story is so bad it makes sense to actually try to verify if it really happened

it didnt

and people should stop promoting it.
