56. It's a technicality
As Cooley is saying it is usually a courtesy that a reporter will allow a whole conversation to be "off the record" after the fact. Also as a journalist you are supposed to confirm your sources, quotes, name spellings, etc. etc. before going to print so one would assume that includes confirming this particular quote. If this was done the aide in question could have demanded that it remain off the record. It's one for the judges. Good talk though guys and gals.
