Reply #34: It's an allegation on Drudge's part - but; [View All]

[anigbrowl]

Drudge is a gossip-monger, but well-respected for having his facts straight. He has no desire to get sued for libel or slander, and it would injure his reputation as a reliable source.

Hating him because he broke the Lewinsky story doesn't mean he's right wing or that he's got no journalistic standards.

So if he's alleging it came from a Clinton staffer, I'd imagine he carefully checked the originating email address before going 'into print' with such an allegation.
