I think on this one it would not be right to pull it. It is not really a duplicate. It is another story from another source about the same story. It is not a posting of the same story.

We have to be careful in our zeal about duplicate posts that we don't limit posting to the event only. On FR, looking at the source(s) of news is as important as the story itself, is it not?

This is Drudge coming online with this story. That is a significant developement. And not one I would want buried in a 1000 post thread on a story many have been following the last couple of days, especially where much of the discussion has been on the different sources reporting this story.
