B. published the story, because they had found independent confirmation to the original leak.

I would tend to agree with this. Some on QCOM threads said it was a rehash of the original (Nikkei? Kyodo?) article, but looking closely at the Bloomberg article shows they have their own source. I also think this leak was probably at least condoned by higher up. Because Bloomberg is a gaijin rag, I do not think they would want to be too maverick in quoting this or that low-level loose canon and risk alienating themselves in Japan--it is hard enough as it is for the gaijin press to gain access to Japan's exclusive press network and kisha clubs without rocking the boat in a way that would anger upper management. So I do not think Bloomberg is being aggressive here in what they printed. The fact that it is not corroborated by what the DDI president says on record is not a refutation. Welcome to the land of honne and tatemae.
