Times of Israel – To contradict, according to the Oxford English Dictionary online, is to “deny the truth of (a statement) by asserting the opposite.”
Used in a sentence, it might look like this: “Leaked cables show Netanyahu’s Iran bomb claim contradicted by Mossad” – which is fine in terms of usage, at least in the condensed prose of headlines, but only partially supported by the evidence provided by The Guardian and Al-Jazeera.
