Matt Drudge: Prince of Slime

[Sandman]

Duh-Mikey recently asked for evidence that Matt Drudge publishes misleading
stories. On Thursday, Jan. 12, Drudge ran the following headline SIX times
during the same day:

http://www.drudgereportarchives.com/data/2004/02/12/20040212_234803_mattjk1.
htm

EVERYTHING in that article, including the Dean reference was a pure
fabrication.

On Friday, Jan. 13, Drudge had another headline, this one a link to a
scurrilous article by Michael Sneed in the Chicago Sun-Times:

http://www.suntimes.com/output/sneed/cst-nws-sneed13.html

Today, the subject of the story, Alexandra Polier exposed Drudge for the
ultra-right-wing ("I'll publish anything Karl Rove asks me to") sleazball he
has always been:

It should be noted that Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity among other
right-wing media ****heads promoted this same Drudge fabrication repeatedly.

No, I asked what he's gotten wrong.

Of course it was fine with you when a fabricated story about Bush 41's
non-existent affair made the news, because after all he is a Republican.

Actually the comment from her father today raises more questions. Why is he

Which is the right quote?

Does the main stream press, (the Liberal press) ever get things wrong. Are
they slime for burying their infrequent retractions on page 12 or wherever?

Your bias is obvious and you really don't care about the truth unless it
hurts somebody you don't like.

OK. He sure "got" this story "wrong" - i.e., he fabricated it.

Works for me.

If you have a problem with it, just got to the Drudge Report page and click
on "previous headlines", and then click on January 12. You'll find the same
headline and the same story posted six times at different times during the
same day.

The way to get it to work is to simply type it into your address box at the
top of your screen, since the "htm" didn't get picked up in blue. Make sure
to add it to the blue lettering when you do so.

Mad? I'm not mad at Sneed or Drudge. I laugh at them.

Who is Bush 41?

What "non-existent affair"??? Never heard of it. Please elaborate.

The latter one. Judy Woodruff, of all people, quoted his exact words on CNN
about supporting Kerry. Only the likes of Drudge, Limbaugh and Sean
Hannity spread the false story about Kerry being a slimeball.

For easy access to this article, just go to Signonsandiego.com. The article
is referenced by a small headline on the main page.

> Does the main stream press, (the Liberal press) ever get things wrong.

And what "Liberal press" would that be? The press owned by Viacom, Murdoch,
TimeWarner, General Electric or Clear Channel? Meaning the vast majority of
the media in America today? The same fictional "liberal media" your airhead
hero Ann Coulter always blows her stack about?

Have no idea what you're insinuating, as usual. Could you try to make
yourself clear for a change?

Ahhh... the expected Duh-Mikey closing line - projecting his dishonesty onto
whoever he disagrees with, or whoever questions his ultra-right-wing idols.

It was reported to him and confirmed by 3 sources. The story originated
with Wes Clark, what aren't you mad at him? I'm referring to the intern
problem story.

How do you know?

Only the DNC or any of the Libs in office would cook up stories about
desertion and wars cooked up in Crawford.

I dsiagree with you a lot because you are a propagandist, who will buy any
lie the Libs tell, but don't hold yourself to the same standards you expect
from those who criticize the left.

Even if that's true, it doesn't mean Drudge cooked it up. Reporters get
stories that even when they get confirmation, turn out to be wrong.

Good, we're all laughing at your sad attempts to win back the White House.

Just out of curiousity, why is it that the GOP controls both houses and the
Presidency. Could it be that teh People are tired of the left?

You mean Ann Coulter the Best Selling Author?

If you claim you are unaware of a liberal bias in the mainstream media, you
are either a liar or a fool.

It's simple. When somebody like the LA Times gets a story wrong that they
ran on the front page, IF they print a retraction, it winds up buried.

An observation. Why do you keep posting links to crap like Moveon.org, as
if they matter?
