Its not misleading, both claims are true. If people refuse to read articles and only read headlines thats not on the author.

OP's version was indeed misleading, making us suppose there was a corpse on the warehouse floor for a week while management covered it up & made everyone keep working around it. rumba@lemmy.zip's explanation was much more detailed & accurate & appreciated.

disagree on the last part. headlines cannot be outright false to their contents, it is acceptable to assume the headline is true to the article that doesn't change that in this case the headline clearly has two separate claims

If false is your bar for misleading, nothing is ever misleading. Misleading statements need to be true to be misleading, otherwise they're just lies.
