Darwin Was Wrong: Your Facial Expressions Do Not Reveal Your Emotions.

Bad headline. What was actually found is that facial expressions do not reveal emotions contextlessly, completely reliably, or with great precision. Context and environment is key here. Of course facial expressions reveal something or we wouldn’t need actors or care how someone reacts to anything.
