This is supposed to be news, at least as I read it.

The article closes with:

Trump vehemently denied the claims, and Steele’s work has lost a significant amount of credibility over the years. Today, the dossier is largely seen as an unproven collection of rumors and gossip.

I'd be interested to know the reporter's source for those two conclusory statements.

I'm not aware that either claim is established truth.
