Mr. Liebeler. No; he doesn't deny the whole bit, he just denies that he was the one that gave that story out.
Mr. Lehrer. I see; I don't know what it could be in that.
Mr. Liebeler. Can you think of any reason why Schmidt might be lying about it?
Mr. Lehrer. No; he had nothing to gain by it. It was just a story, and my goodness, we were working—I mean—there were a multitude of stories and a multitude of checking out and we were deluged just like everybody was with rumors and things of this and that and he would have no reason to write something that wasn't true. The fact is, he didn't even have his name on it, so he didn't have anything to gain by it.
Mr. Liebeler. All right, thank you very much.
Mr. Lehrer. Thank you.
Mr. Liebeler. We appreciate your cooperation.
Mr. Lehrer. All right.
