Is journalism this bad or is Kubiak lying.

Well, for one thing, Bell was drafted in 2004, and according to the bio on HT.com, that was the first year that Gibbs was in Atlanta. I don't know for certain whether the article's wrong, whether NFL.com got the year Bell was drafted wrong, or whether the resume for Gibbs is wrong, but I'm pretty sure I know who I'm betting against.
When a very straightforward fact gets botched up, you kind of lose interest in whether anything else in the article is accurate.
