Strictly speaking, a no-comment is not a denial

GateHouse Media Inc.-owned MPNnow.com reports that Constellation Brands Inc. is denying rumors that it is looking to sell three of its wineries for about $200 million, but the quote that MPNnow.com uses isn’t really a denial:

“We do not comment on rumors or speculations,” said Mike Martin, vice president of communications. “At this point, there isn’t anything we can report.”
