In your example journalists would say that you claim to be the son of god. They wouldn't say that you are the son of god.

You seem to be asking journalists to say "he claims to be the son of god (but he isn't, obvs)" which is asking th journalists to provide information they don't have.

My local newspaper stretched it a bit further by saying that the website was defaced bt "sympathizers of IS". Which is doubly funny, because they obviously took the bait.
