The second one comes from the column headed "Flights within the US and to/from Canada, Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean". The column next to it is for all other DL flights and specifies the GM discount rate. The first thing you quoted contains the sentence "Gold and Silver Medallions are eligible for discounted prices or free seats based on flights and time of selection." That's a short way of saying that for GMs, it depends on what type of flight it is whether the EC selection is free or not.

It's perfectly consistent and sensible. The first thing is a small blurb. It says that PMs and DMs always get EC for free and that there are situations where GMs and FOs can as well. The learn more link gives you the additional details.
