The story is credible. Is it true? This is not enough information to decide that, because, as you say it, there are no sources or other corroborating evidence.

But it does host a starting point for future discussion due to the fact that it offers relatively detailed pieces of information.

Now it's up to others to come out and say "this is true, that is not", people who actually do have provable information. It offers them a story to share their information on. This story didn't exist previously in the public discourse.

The story doesn't even claim it is credible. It claims the White House says the rest of the article is fiction, and provides no counterargument or evidence that contradicts the White House's statement.
