Apparently their excuse is that the date and time is set when they start the draft of the story and not when they post it. Further, they say it is because they were writing another story and then had to switch gears when REAL news comes up and the old story's time sticks.
If any of that were true, at what point does an editor look at the bloody thing!?
They are glorified blog posters at best, and at worse they are just copy and pasting CCP-made stories.
Someone with a computer, faster internet than I, could probably use the way back machine and confirm, right? Might try it myself later, if I have time.
They reused this article's page and updated it with the "storm U.S. capitol" story. If you hover the date you can see the page was archived at 15:10 UTC (I'm pretty sure it's UTC at least), which is 10:10 ET. You can also see in the article it says "Trump plans to address the crowd at 11 a.m.", so it's just an earlier version.
