An article from 1998 may provide context since it quotes Cruz as Boehner’s attorney as a matter of public record long before the 2 016campaign began:

“But Ted Cruz, Boehner’s attorney, said the fund-raising letter demonstrates nothing and highlights the weakness of McDermott’s defense. Boehner alleges that McDermott gave the taped phone call - which Republicans argue did not violate any promise made by Gingrich - to The New York Times, The Atlanta Journal and Roll Call, a semiweekly congressional newspaper.”

Kind of hard to dispute that...

Thanks.
