I understand where you are going with your explanation. But it's a headline, not a government press release. I know that administration isn't concerned with the truth, the media should be. Calling it a drug boat with no evidence shows a huge lack of journalists integrity and in a just world someone would be fired for that.
Well if I understand where you were going with your OP and your reply correctly, you want to insinuate pro-Trump bias in the choice of headline? Because if that is the case the content of the article, plus the general accusation that the Trump administration could have acted illegally, seem to point against that. For example this is the last sentence of the first paragraph:
So based on the article content I would consider the headline to be quoting the Trump administration, which could admittedly have been made clearer by using quotation marks around "Drug Strike" or something.
I am not insinuating a pro Trump bias for this article (I still haven't bothered to even look at the source long enough to even tell you who it is). I'm pointing out clear misinformation in the headline. In this case yes it would serve the current administration's purposes nicely. And yes, quotation marks would pretty nearly solve my problem with it.
