Why isn't Drudge covering the Weinergate scandal?
Krankor | 5/29/2011 | Krankor

Posted on 05/29/2011 3:49:24 PM PDT by Krankor

This is the biggest story on the internet today. Yet, for some reason, Drudge has completely ignored it. I know it's a holiday weekend, but there have been other updates on his site. What gives?

Drudge doesn’t update Saturday or Sunday unless there is something Earth shattering.

Tuesday it’ll be front and center.

The only thing I can think of is- Drudge is out of town and whoever is moderating the site knows Weiner and Drudge are buddies, so they’re afraid to cover it. But you gotta believe Drudge monitors the site and is always in contact with whoever’s in charge. I’m guessing Drudge and Weiner are pals.

It’s the weekend.

FGS, now we are attacking Drudge too.

Give it up already.

I don't look at Drudge. Why would I? Isn't FreeRepublic tons better?

As for Weiner and his weiner do I really need to care about this? All it shows is that the guy is a jerk, but didn't everyone who pays attention know that already?

It’s good to tweak the Slimes and the DC Postal occasionally.

Sarah Palin at Rolling Thunder isn’t Earth-shattering, IMO, yet that is up there.

Breitbart said he had a lot more evidence, and was looking for a confirmation or denial from Weiner for now. I think they want to drag it out longer and let Weiner continue to make himself look even worse until the MSM has no choice but to cover it.

I’ve just scanned a thing or two on this story. Is the photo (s) believed to actually be Weiner, or is it some Photoshop job, or what is it thought to be?

Breitbart was snuggling up to queers at CPAC, I'll trust his judgement on Weiner.

No one knows who’s in the photo. It could be Weiner or a picture he took off the web. The point is, a sitting U.S. Congressman claimed someone hacked his account, impersonated him- a federal offense- and then sent a dick picture to an innocent college girl. And he then congratulated the hacker.

Lol, a likely story. Maybe the truth will come out plain enough that the MSM can't ignore it.

Mrs Ballbreaker is demanding a line up. She would recognize the offending part immediately. Apologies to the “Porky’s” fans.

Actually, the story is catching on and Weiner has apparently disappeared off the face of the earth. His staff has released a statement saying they are trying to determine what to do next regarding the supposed hacker. I mean, come on, all they have to do is call the FBI- something I doubt Weiner will do. My bet is he’ll resign before the week is out.

Oh, for Pete's sake.

Next up -- "Drudge is no better than CNN."

Sheesh.

Perhaps because it isn’t a “scandal”, but an apparent hacking job. We will find out soon enough.
