It's the pattern that the actual title follows.

The actual title of the article is "Seattle woman’s 911 calls reveal gaps in ambulance service"
When I visit the page I get a modal paywall, the browser tab (small, could easily escape notice) takes on the title you report, and in huge letters across the page behind the paywall I see:

> She called 911 for an ambulance. She got a nightmare instead

As far as I'm concerned the second one is the title because (regardless of any technicalities such as metadata) that's how it's being presented to me when I visit.

Oh I see. I didn't realise different titles were being presented. The huge letters for me read what I pasted above. Might be different on mobile.
