63. Again - they merely reported "according to"

not what they guessed about.

It's like someone, say in Ukraine, who "reports that" it snowed yesterday, so YESTERDAY a news outlet publishes that "report". But then the following day, more info comes out to say that it "wasn't 'snow' but 'sleet'".

Yet you would argue that the report was intentionally wrong yesterday despite it being from yesterday. The date and publication time is listed.

It's what happens when you have no argument at all. One goes on with obfuscating with a bunch of nonsense.
