Since that function takes date from the url first and later from the described tags from the xpath. Its giving wrong date.
You can check with this example url http://www.newsweek.com/2018/05/18/navy-seals-seal-team-6-left-behind-die-operation-anaconda-slabinski-chapman-912343.html
My suggestion is switch the two methods. Get date first from the tags/attributes and then from the url.
