NYT: Manafort was on the calls w/ the Russian intelligence officials.

FBI: "We are unaware of any calls with any Russian govt official in which Manafort was a party."
NYT: Roger Stone was part of the FBI's inquiry into Russian ties.

FBI: "We have not investigated Roger Stone"
Fascinating to see real-time FBI assessment of inaccurate reporting.

Comey also disputed the story in June 2017.

Despite Comey denial, NYT stood by their sources: the "current and former" US officials leaking false info.
