I wonder what percentage of total graduates walked out? The video shows maybe around 50 people at all. The title makes it seem like everyone graduating walked out.

It does not.
Which part of the title indicates that everyone walked out? I assumed it was merely some of the cohort.
"Pentagon leaders disagree with DoD budget cuts."

Technically, that just means at least two people at the Pentagon who qualify as leaders disagreed.

But it seems like broad opinion.

It might seem like a broad opinion, but that’s the reader’s own opinion either being reinforced or rejected by a single line of text.

The reader may wish the disagreement wasn’t documented at all, because it doesn’t meet their own personal editorial standards, and they like telling someone they don’t pay how to do their jobs.

But factually, there’s nothing incorrect about what was observed and reported.

You are technically correct.
