Statement by the Office of the Governor

February 2, 2012

Government House Director of Communications Jean P. Greaux, Jr. on Thursday reconfirmed that he had spoken to Matthew Boyle of the Daily Caller, a partisan on-line publication, prior to its publishing or posting of a lengthy story containing allegations of wrong-doing. “The reporter was told that what he was proposing to print was totally false, outrageous and, absurd on its face.” 

Government House today reaffirmed that the allegations put forth in the politically-charged story by Matthew Boyle are simply untrue. 

The Government believes the allegations are slanderous and the reporter has shown reckless disregard for the truth. The Governor and Attorney General are seeking a retraction of the posted story.
