That article makes it look simply like journalists doing normal cultivation of sources and
due diligence by runningg things by a major source as a secondary form of double checking their reporting. If I was a national security reporter I'd certainly tap contacts in the government to at least run things by them as part of my process, albeit with a a fair few grains if salt taken with anything they say.

There didn't seem to be any real substance to it.
