Cambanis is 'puzzled & saddened'

Cambanis writes to Mousawi that he "...never once used
the words "off the record"  and that he was was not told by either Mousawi or Hoteit that there was a Hezbollah media freeze.
Cambanis went on with his plaidoirie to say that he "did not fabricate the quote..." and that these were the exact words said. In his final salvo he concludes that he was "...surprised and saddened to have to contend with an unfounded, spurious allegation of reportorial misconduct."
