No it wasn't. The fact that Drew Johnson confirmed two of the women was discussed by most pundits last week and over the weekend as being particularly damning evidence against Cruz's denials. Even more so because the media itself has known the facts of this case for several weeks, but sat on the story. Other journalists from Breitbart were upset that they sat on the story and have said so.
The Washington Times has compounded is problems by both firing Johnson, and they being caught lying about his status as a reporter for them and on they payroll as recently as February.
So he knew two of the rumored names that were being shopped about. That is a giant nothing and proves squat as to whether the rumors were true.
