[Ads-l] to "question"

[Jonathan Lighter]

'To attempt to deny (that)' :

CNN reports that the French government has criticized the release of
cockpit recordings from the Germanwings flight, "but does not question that
the information is accurate."

Some OED defs. come close, but definitely no cigar.
