"Officials are urging journalists to treat reports of this type of find with more caution," he said.

Murdoch and Sully, birds of a feather.

To be fair, it looks like Sky "updated" (that is, retracted) the story after Sully's post. And Sully uses all the right weasel words. But that only suggests he knows a Murdoch outlet is an unreliable source.
