I it is more likely that they threatened them for the same reason while they always denied price cut rumors? Because false rumors of a fake Slim would lead to dropping sales of the old one? Sometimes, false rumor, and vaporware are good for a company. When it suggests that their current top-product is going to be obselete in a few days, it isn't.
Also, Sony wouldn't officially deny it so clearly, a few days before the E3, when they are supposed to announce it. That would be an obvious lie. It would just make them look manipulative and, untrustworthy, ruining their reputation.
