Third hand info
“Industry sources” (i.e., lobbyists with an axe to grind) told the reporter that they heard this from “confidants”. Pretty weak. Wall Street Journal reported on Friday that he’s not leaving.
Re: Third hand info
Probably true. I did post it under the “rumors” category, but you’re right that there isn’t much behind this one.
