Charges should be filed against MATT DRUDGE

He used his megaphone to try to incite a race riot.


He screamed "fire" in a crowded theater.

1. Linking to a news story is not illegal.

2. He made a 70-point font headline saying "McCain worker mutiliated by Obama supporter" yesterday

Before he took it down.

3. Agreed.
If Drudge were a simple news organization that made a mistake, that would be one thing. But Drudge is a right-wing mouthpiece, and purposely attempted to use this unconfirmed story to alter public consciousness in disturbing ways. So yes, he should be investigated for this - you're 'fire in a crowded theater' analogy sounds about right to me.

4. Red Meat for Keith and Rachel!
The Todd woman gets "Worst" and Sludge gets "Worse" tonight! They deserve all the ridicule they get over this.
