In fact, there is an audio recording of the meeting, and of the "non-existent" Senior White House official who is named.

It seems The New York times was indeed still incorrect with all the above regardless of that audio... that audio does NOT say what the NYT claims it says according to the Federalist...

So it seems the NYT did indeed publish FAKE NEWS all along.

Clearly The New York Times peddled fake news. There may have been a real White House briefing with real White House officials, but The New York Times couldn’t be trusted to accurately summarize what the White House official said. And it wasn’t on a minor point.

Recall that the whole point of their characterization was to say this official was at odds with Trump and that Trump wasn’t listening to his advisors. The fact that Trump and his advisors were not disagreeing with each other undermines the entire point of The New York Times story.

Yes really, if you think posting UK intel of dead bodies from a terrorist attack and bomb fragments, days after the event actually occurred and you think that is even handed, then you have strange standards indeed Maggy.
