The only thing funnier than that is Blumenthal's attempt to spin the settlement as a cheap way to get out of a hardship Drudge was inflicting on him through this lawsuit (I kid you not!!!) while at the same time depriving Drudge of publicity. You cannot make this stuff up. Quoting (naturally) the Washington Post: But Blumenthal said that "suing Drudge was the right thing to do because it was the only way to make absolutely clear that his story was a malicious and reckless lie. "Unfortunately, he is backed by unlimited funds from political supporters who use a tax-exempt foundation. He'd like to see the lawsuit go on endlessly. Bad publicity for him is good for his kind of business. Drudge has placed enough burden on our family for four years and we're moving on with our lives."
