Misleading Headline Damns Vegans

This misleading headline from the Tampa Times damns vegans: 

Cape Coral vegans charged with murder after baby starves to death

The dead toddler’s parents told police they eat only raw fruits and vegetables.
The baby didn't die because it wasn't given meat and animal products.  It died because they neglected it.  But by focusing on "vegans" and eating only raw fruits and vegetables, the article gives the impression that it was the plant-based diet that killed the baby.
