We reached Meckler on his cellphone on Wednesday morning and asked if the report was accurate. His response: “I wouldn’t comment on rumors.”

The reporter responded by pointing out that it wouldn’t exactly be “rumor” to Meckler, who would have first-hand knowledge of such talks (or the lack thereof).

Meckler’s response: “It’s a rumor.”

It was a short conversation.
