The right-hand rule deals with an electric current. The news above deals with an electrostatic charge.

The right-hand rule for force on a conductor can be used to determine the direction of the force experienced on the conductor. If the right thumb points in the direction of the current in the conductor and the fingers of the right hand point in the direction of the external magnetic field, then the force on the conductor is directed outward from the palm of the right hand.

When things like this come out, it is sometimes hard to tell whether the "scientists" are really that stupid, or if they are just bold frauds, playing to the ignorant in hopes of notoriety and grant money.
