Like I said earlier, the reporting is not contradictory. The two sources only contradict each other on slight details. That's just two sources with different perspectives. The stories are essentially the same.

White House counsel Don McGahn threatened to resign from his position in June 2017-- but it was not a direct response to President Trump's discussion about firing newly appointed special counsel Robert Mueller.
Sources tell Garrett that White House senior staff viewed Mr. Trump's talk of firing Mueller skeptically, since he has frequently mentioned firing people in his administration, but often quickly forgets about it.
NYT
President Trump ordered the firing last June of Robert S. Mueller III, the special counsel overseeing the Russia investigation, according to four people told of the matter, but ultimately backed down after the White House counsel threatened to resign rather than carry out the directive.
