There's surely only a few options on this intriguing story:
1) The Washinton Post have invented the story.
Likelihood: Low, it would cause severe reputational damage to the paper.
2) Someone has misled the paper.
Likelihood: Possible, but the paper would have due diligence processes in place to reduce the possibility of this happening and the story is still online.
3) Someone present has informed the paper in confidence.
Likelihood: High if more than a couple of people were there. The story is still on the paper's website a day after it was first published.
