Your link doesn’t go to Drudge and I don’t see this on his site.

Did you look at this site:

http://thinkprogress.org/wonkroom/2008/05/09/right-wing-gore-cyclone/

That has a "Drudge Report" headline capture that shows the Gore item.

And I just searched the Drudge Report. Follow this link:

http://www.drudgereportarchives.com/dsp/search.htm?searchFor=Gore

Here's the first link found in the search:

"Gore Calls Cyclone 'Consequence' of Global Warming ... ^
From the May 06, 2008 20:48:37 GMT edition of the Drudge Report.

These link to the Business and Media site. Ah, interesting editor's note:

Editor's Note: Clarification: The original audio for this story included two accurate audio clips but placed in the incorrect order. They are now included on this story as separate clips. For the full NPR interview, click here."

I'm glad they made the correction. Unfortunately the can't correct all the blogosphere echoes that were inspired by it, like "Al Gore: Eater of the Dead", etc. And I note that BMI didn't change the title of the piece, either, which is still inaccurate. Oh well.
