e-mail turns out to be fake, it's a solid enough source to take to print. No one would ever expect a well-known dean and college professor to simply make up something like a WH appointment.

And it's not at all clear from the WH response that there never was such an appointment. It sounds like an equivocation suggesting James was part of a group that received an invitation short of what James claimed, and that he has now been DIS - invited on the basis of GG's piece.

Someone lied here, but it wasn't Greenwald.
