Not the Department, not the Secretary, not the Joint Chiefs, just the lowly old spokesman, all by himself, who is 
"not aware."  A weaker and less convincing denial can scarcely be imagined this side of the divorce court.

And the CNN headline, while technical true :

U.S. officials deny they are urging technical takedown of WikiLeaks

would be more accurate as

Minor U.S. officials deny they are personally urging technical takedown of WikiLeaks

which would have not nearly had the same punch.

Who cares ? we'll know what they actually said/did in the next batch
of stolen documents.
