If you (or phys.org) are posting a rewritten press release for research results that have not yet successfully undergone peer review, you need to say so at the outset.

Write them, they can use all the complaints they can get.
My first paper was https://arxiv.org/abs/cond-mat/9512055v1 which eventually got published in Physical Review E but the abstract for a talk I gave at the March Meeting of the APS caught the eye of a reporter at Science News so I had the cover story one week, I think before the real publication.
The magazine printed a photo I took of Ron Maimon crumpling paper on the sofa of my office with an apparatus that I invented. Ron never completed his PhD on string theory but he eventually became a notorious 9/11 "truther" and conspiracy theorist.
