Post date/time can't be changed via the Quick-Edit bulk editor. You might edit the SQL directly, if you're comfortable running a query in PHPMyAdmin. Or, you could search for a Plugin?

I just had a similar issue. I used this:
UPDATE `wp_posts`
SET post_date = "2008-02-13 23:50:30"
WHERE post_status = "publish"
AND post_date >=DATE_SUB(CURDATE(),Interval 5 day)
It is updating the wp_posts table and changing anything published in the last 5 days to the date of 2008-02-13.

You you mind making your answer WP compatible?
$wpdb->query,$wpdb->posts, etc.?– kaiserFeb 14, 2014 at 2:12
