Perhaps Matt Drudge
should stick to aggregating content from elsewhere (often with revved-up
headlines) rather than "report" -- as demonstrated by this 1999 "world exclusive," which helped push the story into mainstream media.
And as demonstrated by his 2007 "exclusive" in which he accused CNN reporter Michael Ware of "heckling" Republican senators during a news conference in Iraq and "laughing and mocking their comments." Drudge's evidence-free charge -- based on an anonymous "official" -- was picked up by rightwing blogs and the Washington Times. Video of the news conference showed Ware hadn't opened his mouth.
