He was quoted in the story with a denial OF COURSE he knew the story was coming out, that is not at odds with him saying that he first heard of the allegations via the New Yorker story. He didn’t say first time he heard about it was when he READ it in the magazine.
The texts were ABOUT the upcoming story and the allegations.

Correct.

Note what the question was: INCIDENT IN QUESTION.

Look what Fake News NBC left out of the "story."

Oh wait, Judge Kavanaugh had already heard and testified that Ramirez was calling around looking for dirt on him. He didn't know the specific allegation, but he had every reason to try to pre-empt something from her.

NBC is lying. As usual.
