looks to me like they wanted to use that story until they learned the real reason to stop the speculation.

That group had a policy of not allowing any Hillary-hate posts to remain, and if the rumor of this being a Hillary attack were to be left standing it would have been very hard to police the group ... so until they knew for sure and had evidence, they left it as a 'database error'.
