In the news

Mea culpa. I read it as a depiction of how the crazies, who believe anything Trump says, behave - but you're right. Some pharmacies in the US are having problems with people turning up demanding anti-malaria drugs, waving their smartphones showing a video of Trump as justification, but that's a different story.

Also

you rang?

lolz

Trump lied and said that the FDA had approved the use of an anti-malaria medication called chloroquine to treat patients infected with coronavirus.

'Even after the FDA chief clarified that the drug still needs to be tested for that use, Trump overstated the drug’s potential upside in containing the virus.'

I think this is very news worthy.

I didn't say they twisted the facts

Oops, sorry, I didn't refresh the thread. Sorry also for misunderatdning you. I didn't get this impression from the article:

tl;dr anyone who skims the headline and swallows what they read hook line and sinker will leave the article believing that these guys died not because they went out bought poison and drank it, but because Trump mistakenly named or believed this poison is a cure ( because he's an idiot! Of course!) and they were innocents simply following Trump's erroneous advice.

The opening paragraph is clear, I think:

A Phoenix-area man has died and his wife was in critical condition after the couple took chloroquine phosphate, an additive used to clean fish tanks that is also found in an anti-malaria medication touted by Donald Trump as a treatment for Covid-19.

I can totally see how a casual reader could miss that nuance, but I don't think it justifies the claim that the reporting is twisted.
