Please be aware- "BREITBART.COM" is a REICHWING OUTFIT.

I know that sometimes there are good stories on Drudge, but he often sends his Right-Wing Pal Breitbart hits by using links to HIS site, rather than the original wire service links.

I know it adds steps, but if there is a good story Drudge is pushing through breitbart, just cut/paste the headline and use Yahoo or Google News search to find the proper link.

I hate that good people are unnecessarily giving clicks to this phony thug's phony site.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Breitbart

Andrew Breitbart is an author, occasional guest commentator for political news programs and is best known as a contributor for the popular U.S.-based Drudge Report website. He was the primary developer for the celebrity weblog The Huffington Post and currently runs his own news portal, Breitbart.com.

Breitbart has appeared as a conservative commentator on talk shows such as Real Time with Bill Maher and Dennis Miller. <2> Breitbart took on a higher profile as a commentator during the 2004 U.S. election cycle after appearing in Michael Moore Hates America <3>, a 2004 movie directed by Michael Wilson that is highly critical of filmmaker Michael Moore's documentary creation tactics and editing style. As a guest commentator on FOX News Channel's morning show on May 10th, 2004, Breitbart explained that "Michael Moore's been lying for ten years. Every time that guy lies he gains a pound. He's like a culinary Pinocchio" and "Yeah, they love him. They love the sort of anti-middle American vibe that the guy gives off because he's from Flint, Michigan, so he can ostensibly claim to be speaking for Middle America. But the guy lives on the Upper West Side, and he's the classic elitist." <4>
