To: Choose Ye This Day
That was a very accurate dig about Drudge, though. That guy's the king of sensationalistic headlines that go nowhere. "Developing..." I can't stand the Drudge page.

LOL...see, people from both sides of the aisle can, in fact, agree sometimes. As for Drudge, I don't understand why he does that. Is he saying he needs more time to get the whole story? Or is he just deliberately keeping people hanging on? If so, that is very annoying.

Speaking of Drudge, I also don't understand why more states don't do a "state" version of Drudge. Here in Florida we have The Sayfie Review, and I do read that each day. (I think Justin Sayfie was (Gov) Jeb Bush's communications director at one point.)

Drudge is not an ethical actor. About 3 years ago, Drudge said he had the "story of the century," a story that would "shake the world to it's foundations." Suddenly he quit talking about the story.

I called his show one night, and asked him what became of this huge story that was so important. He did a little dance, claimed the story was "still out there," but he needed more research or time before he revealed it.

I said to him "If the story is that important, you owe everyone all the information you have now." He danced a little more and cut me off.

I told the screener what I wanted to ask about, so he knew the question he would get. He took me as his last call of the show. He tried to keep the idea of having a huge story alive without revealing anything, and has never said anything more about this earthshaking story, to my knowledge.

I knew his character then, and paid no more attention to him.
