The headine appears to accurately represent the news story O B. The headline is exaggerating the results given in the story The headine uses a bigger figure for the amount of drugs in movies than the figure given in the story C. The headine is downplaying the resuits presented in the story, because the government produced the study O D.

Claim by the government study:

Drug use, Drinking or Smoking was depicted in 98% of the top movie rentals
