Anybody know when the last time Drudge had a real-honest-to-goodness-scoop?

I don't know, but he always seems to have a steaming shovel full. LOL

Uh, Miers?

You know, that is not actually the business that Drudge is in. What Drudge is really good at is picking those few stories that are floating around that are really of national prominence and putting them on his page. He has excellent "taste" in that respect - far better than any other news source that I know. Almost everything that Drudge puts on his site is a story that has some particularly poignant interest.

Drudge's service to the country is not as an investigative journalist, but making sure that the most worthy stories receive national attention. Once they are on Drudge, no one can any long ignore or bury them.
