WASHINGTON - The Justice Department inspector general's office now says the U.S. Government did not pay $16 for each muffin at a legal conference after all.
The earlier report caused a major stir, but it appears that it was a story that was too good to be true.
A spokesperson for the IG's office has now backed down on the $16 muffin cost, but the office remains critical of the amount paid for the food and beverages.

Understanding how politics are played, and how "governmentspeak" works, it would not surprise me to learn (and notice, they didn't say) that the price was $15.85 per muffin.

And apparently you didn't read the article either.
IG lied. It is that simple.
