Another demonstration of Noir's difficulty and sad, sad ability with reading comprehension. Or, have we actually been giving you too much credit and it's just a comprehension problem?
One is a candidate making a claim that literally can't be confirmed by anyone else (the company, the franchise owner, co-workers, etc.) and the media leaving the claim alone because it would hurt their anointed queen. The other is a very general statement by that company that
assumes the truth of that candidate's claim and comments accordingly. "So,. which is it"? Both, you dumb ass.
I'm really sorry that you have such challenges. I'm also sorry that you get so easily offended by X now that it isn't regulated for you to only offer what your programmers deem you should think.
Stuff like this probably upsets you - after someone tells you it's not true, only parody.
