Hi Judy,
 
I would agree that Buzzflash needs to be taken with a grain or two of salt.  My advice for that site is to avoid the editorials done by the Buzzflash staff.  Rather, just follow links to outside newspapers and sources.  This tends to limit the extreme liberal bias.  My second piece of advice applies to Drudge's site and worldnetdaily as well: take caution in believing a story until you see it reported on all the major news sites.  These sites traffic in rumours and gossip as well as actual news.  While it is cool to see what may become tomorrows news we must always keep in mind that it may not.
 
The other thing I like to do is read weblogs (called blogs).  These are independent people who have sites just to express their own opinion.  Almost every one of them is partisan but a lot of stories break first on these sites.
 
Jonathan

I wondered if you were reporting fact or heresy; either way it's not good to uncover another person's nakedness.  I've gone to Buzzflash a couple of times just to see what you were talking about and I wouldn't take anything they say seriously.  To me all of it isounds like a personal vendetta to get back at Drudge for daring to report things about Clinton and his administration. Kind of like a family feud with he said, she said which is not good for anything...  I don't frequent Drudge's site either and am going to put all of this on the shelf.  Whatever is hidden will eventually be shouted from the housetops without my help and the disease will always declare itself eventually.  Thank you for the response Jonathan,  Judyt

Hi Judy,

 

Not sure why this matters to you so much.  Regardless of his sexuality it is still the best conservative web site for gossip/news just as buzzflash is the best liberal site for gossip/news.  There are many reports of Drudge’s homosexuality.  He has admitted to dating guys but has denied having sex with them.  This is similar to Michael Huffington stating that he is “homosexual but not gay.”  My main source is David Brock’s Blinded by the Right.  David Brock, a former conservative that took down Anita Hill and wrote a book on Hilary Clinton is gay.  He claims that Drudge came onto him at a party once.  I will spare you the details.  Drudge denies it.  I have read both of Brock’s books.  You would like neither of them and although you would have championed him when he was a conservative I doubt you would support him now.  To be fair it is more likely that Drudge is bisexual.

Jonathan:

 

The other day you called Matt Drudge a homosexual in one of your messages.  Just where did you

get your facts for this statement?

 

I sure hope you were not quoting Buzzflash.  I see they have an article about that which is choc

full of innuendo and totally void of fact.  It's just a cesspool of opinion and gossip with nothing to

support most of what they say other than a desire to get back at Drudge for reporting things they

don't like about their heroes.

 

Judyt
