Sounds like Drudge is standing by Rush.

[lainie]

Drudge says he'll survive. Rush has been so true to his audience they aren't going to do anything but stand by him. Rush & the audience are family and there's no turn-your-back tough love right off the bat here. Drudge is now breaking O'Reilly's crappy attitude, poll on B.O.'s website:

"Will Rush Limbaugh's career be hurt because of the current situation?" 73% no.

me talking: O'Reilly's just looking for a way to sneak in and cash in on Rush's vulnerability -- like he tried to last time.
