He's a despicable person, but this is a bullshit story. And this is normal. Where things are shifted just enough so that they are now just 'based on a true story.'
"People he didn't like" was a journalist. Who, because they were asking for a comment on a story, was of course going to print it. It's not like Milo said this in joking confidence to some nobody. This was his comment upon request.
Let's not be deliberately obtuse here.
Did the story (there where asking him to comment on) have anything; that the comment could legitimately be confused as a response to. It seems to me, like people are grasping at straws.
