U.S. Attorney's office tells employees not to log on to Drudge Report
Politico ^ | May 15, 2009 | By JONATHAN MARTIN

The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Massachusetts directed employees earlier this month not to log onto the Drudge Report website with government-issued computers due to potential viruses on the site.

In a message sent May 4, Paul Harvey of the Boston office wrote that security officials with the U.S. Attorney’s Office at the Department of Justice asked them “to reformat/reimage two computers because the user visited the drudgereport.com site.”

“Please avoid the Drudgereport website from the [United States Attorney’s Office] computers,” Harvey wrote.

The ad on the top of the page if you click it will show viruses. I never click it.

They don’t want the general population to be EXPOSED to something that could change them and could spread like wildfire.

Very suspicious ~ and yet so typical of a lawyer to protect his own cases and let all the other guys in the "firm" go down in flames.

Did someone tell that guy yet that DOJ doesn't pay contingency fees to staffers?

Don't ya love freedom?!

Our freedoms will be tested during the next several years. After all -- guns are only for hunting, you know... and the internet (e.g. Drudge Report) and broadcast mediums (TV e.g. Fox and radio, e.g. Limbaugh) is only for what the gov't wants us to know.
Stay vigilant.
