Plenty of Banks denied all sorts of rumors. Said denials weren't always so accurate it turned out.

>>BoA denies McDonald's franchise credit freeze
Charlotte-based bank calls report 'factually inaccurate', affirms it is not cutting off new or current lines of credit.

<<BoA denies McDonald's franchise credit freeze

The story told a different tale. The meat of the story confirmed BOA did denie Micky dees.

from that articleOn Monday, Bloomberg News reported that McDonald's Corp. sent a memo to some franchise owners advising them to seek other financing options for expansion efforts. A company spokesman declined to confirm that on Tuesday, although analysts at both Cowen & Co. and Deutsche Bank published research notes Tuesday saying said the chain's management verified the information in discussions with them.
