Michael Cohen’s attorney, Lanny Davis has admitted that he was an anonymous source for the disputed CNN Trump Tower story and also admitted lying about it on TV.
The Washington Times reports Davis told BuzzFeed News on Monday that he was a source for the story claiming that President Trump had personal prior knowledge of a Trump Tower meeting with Russians.
The Cohen camp has since backed off that claim.
The CNN story has come under fresh scrutiny in recent days after Davis acknowledged he had served as an anonymous source for multiple news outlets who were trying to confirm the article after it was published.
Davis, who was eager before to push the narrative, has now backed away from the story, saying he’s “not certain” if the claim is accurate.
