My theory is that Lloyd didn't have this leaked to him before everyone else in the community and couldn't find someone of importance to interview about it before anyone else. So, since he couldn't twist it to make him look more important than anyone else, he dismissed it. This also gives him a chance to mock and ridicule those who are making a big deal out of it.
It's always all about Lloyd, no matter what. If it can't be used to amplify his platform and stroke his ego, it's unimportant. Plus everyone else is just a child, jumping up and down about things they shouldn't while he's the level-headed adult.
