Both the statements from Park and the 'club source' have been coordinated with the objective of distancing the Green regime from Whyte (I'm not quite convinced of the necessity for that, but for obvious reasons the Green regime are keen to keep distance between themselves and Whyte). This is an attempt to kill the story (if in fact there is a story in there worth the name). It's the food and drink of Media House, Green is listening very carefully to his advisor's these days, especially those who know the lay of the land up here.
