I gotcha. Enough headline/lead language was rightfully blasted today that I’m not gonna stretch to guard GG on this. Seemed pedantic and centering a weird defense I guess tho.
Self-correction. What the NYT is doing is using an intransitive verb - die - (a verb that requires a doer but not a direct object) over a transitive verb - kill - (a verb that needs a doer AND a direct object).
