OT I feel the Drudge site should be checked out before it is judged. I suspect that many people are unaware that the Drudge site has one of the most complete & easy to locate listings of major news sites. You can access AP, Reuters, major foreign newspapers around the globe, and many of the most popular columnists/writers in the country. The "spin" we get from broadcast news is frequently VERY different from what you can regularly read from AP, Reuters, etc., IMHO. FWIW, JohnD

Uh huh. Not to state the obvious or anything, but Drudge has an axe to grind. He makes a big deal of getting leaks 6 hours before they show up in more conventional media. He's also willing to blather stuff the supermarket tabloids won't publish. The Register will take on everybody, Drudge is like Rush, he 's very careful to only dump on people he likes to dump on. You like that kind stuff, fine, just don't make out like it's the news in any conventional sense of the word. Cheers, Dan.
