Anyone else find Drudge's headline & pic a little... odd?

If there is a message, there is usually an accompanying story somewhere.

Drudge does this a lot with his main photos often.

A double entendre, or some kind of homoerotic slam on Obama.

His photos OFTEN carry a double meaning.

That was my guess as well.

Where is the skinny kid who sang RESPECT? Seriously, she’s one of the last great singers before Rap / Hip Hop.

No not “odd,” just the norm for a woman who cannot keep the weight off. Great singer.

So, what’s over? The fight for independence, or tie to UK?

I feel like Drudge has been a little “off key” for the last year.

Fewer and fewer of his articles are “must reads” for Conservatives.

Rush won’t shut it about football

It is weird

And no particular point of view

These guys are nasty. We know it but it walked getting caught on camera and everything changes. The guy is pulling the woman out of the elevator in an assault ice manner

We know he punched her

But we have to hear it from rush non stop

And btw there’s that nasty Charles Barkley, ‘every black kid in the south gets hit ‘

What is his point? Jerk

He got hit do now he says everyone needs to like it that he said all women in a certain city are fat

That’s an advertisement for how healthy it is to get hit

Hitters are pricks

I think that’s the point. The story is incongruously placed by design. Aretha Franklin covering an Adele song is not a headline... yet he’s had it above the fold since 3pm.

Matt Drudge speaks in code quite often. This is one of those times.

That’s the riddle. The more drastic scenario of the two is independence for Scotland and the fallout in the financial/currency markets... so that would be my guess.
