That denial of things not alleged in the WP story could be construed as confirmation of its accuracy.
Pretty much. McMasters was unwilling to out and out lie.

The liberals from the Obama administration are the leakers. They could pass this on and blame Trump.

It also could indirectly be Comey himself as the leaker to someone else and it was passed on.

It's obviously impossible to know what's fully going on here - but clever wordplay could be in use here. So that they're not "lying", per se - but also not exactly addressing what the story claimed in the first place.

From the article you posted:

So what is the truth, The Hill or WaPo?
The source that gave the US this information DID NOT give authorization to disclose it to the Russians. Trump unilaterally decided to do this on his own to look like a big shot.

What part of this don't you people understand?

Was Comey in the meeting with the Russians? The only smiling face I've seen in those pictures is Trump.

Well, Putin paid for the guy, and he's delivering.

How does anyone know what Trump said.
Is the room wiretapped & bugged?

And you know this how?

Most stories report that people leaking information are career government employees. Not "left overs".

And Comey did tell others AT THE TIME of the dinner (January) that he was asked to the White House for dinner and that Trump asked him to pledge loyalty.

No one in the room leaked anything. Fake story. It came from the fake news rag.
