Drudge is losing all crediability. Everyday one headline contradicts the day before. Getting to be typical rag sheet.

This has nothing to do with Drudge's credibility. Every news outlet was reporting last night that Vodafone was likely to win. And indeed, they almost did. An article on the NYT site explains how Cingular only won by making a last-ditch bid during a secret conference call at 1:30 am this morning Eastern time, while all the executives at Vodafone in England were still at home asleep. By the time the Vodafone board met to approve the offer they'd made the day before, it was too late; Cingular and AT&T had already signed the paperwork.

Drudge is only guilty of being asleep (probably literally) while events changed.
