Outgoing Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus forcefully dismissed a New York Times report that the RNC was hacked by Russians, claiming it is “absolutely not true.”

“We contacted the FBI months ago when the when the issue came about,” Priebus told ABC News, referring to the hacking of the Democratic National Committee in July. “They reviewed all of our systems. We have hacking-detection systems in place, and the conclusion was then, as it was again two days ago when we went back to the FBI to ask them about this, that the RNC was not hacked.”
