One of the points of the article is the head/skull usually associated with the Brontosaurus was incorrect, as well as the body being a duplicate.
So with the usual headline sensationalism, it is fair to say "it never existed". More accurately, one could say something like "the dinosaur popularly known as brontosaurus, is actually a aptosaurus with a different head..." But as a headline, it lacks punch.
