selecting an attribute doesn't seem to work

Expected Behavior
https://moneymaven.io/mishtalk/economics/lie-of-the-day-this-is-not-a-pandemic-CdOIoPAmbEyglh3Ls6RXKQ
export const MoneymavenIoExtractor = {
domain: 'moneymaven.io',
title: {
selectors: [
'article h1'
],
},
date_published: {
selectors: [
['meta[name="build:date"]', 'content'],
],
},
content: {
selectors: [
'article'
],
},
}
Using [meta[name="build:date"]','content'] should extract the value:
<meta name="build:date" content="2020-02-22 00:49:13 +0000">
Current Behavior
In the test, the value is not extracted:
● MoneymavenIoExtractor › initial test case › returns the date_published
AssertionError [ERR_ASSERTION] [ERR_ASSERTION]: null == '2020-02-22 00:49:13 +0000'
47 | // Update these values with the expected values from
48 | // the article.
> 49 | assert.equal(date_published, '2020-02-22 00:49:13 +0000')
| ^
50 | });

Steps to Reproduce
See above
Detailed Description
Using $$('meta[name="build:date"]'); in the browser finds only one element. It's not clear why the parser isn't picking it up (see NULL in above test output).
Is this user error?
Other
This site is pretty terrible and appears to intentionally leave things unlabeled. I'm not sure I'll ever be able to provide a valid parser that grabs everything for it. I'll probably carry something in a local fork.
I am using mercury via https://github.com/feedbin/extract
