Was the headline changed at the source? Most of these things are generated by automatic feeds, no person actually programs them in, they appear on Google and their news threads based on what is fed to them and link popularity. IF this article was never posted as ‘hundreds’ then it may be interesting to check, however, if it was first posted as hundreds when it hit the wire, the modified by editors to ‘thousands’ (just like you can change a blog post), there isn’t anything here.. Needs more research before knee jerking..
It could be, but I haven’t located sources other than google for the ‘hundreds’ title...
Thank you for injecting some common sense and calm into the usual outrage and hysteria over these claims before all the facts are known.
