Ok, that's great that you're using a word for it. I could not possibly care any less.

Why is it bad to assume that a US-centric site is writing a US-centric article when they put "feds" in the title?

Why does there being an implicit bias towards expecting a US-centric site to produce US-centric articles, mean that the journalism is not misleading?

It doesn't. It is misleading. It is clickbait. You are defending the indefensible.
