We can agree to disagree, then. I am not disputing the idea of liberal and conservative news organizations. I am saying that once a story heats up, all of that goes out the window and from then on, it's all about big, spashy headlines and catchy, provocative sound bites complete with colorful graphics, logos and icons. It doesn't matter who's in the bullseye.
By the way, I think the Drudge scoop was a matter of waiting for the story to break. Once it broke, we were inundated with all sorts of details about pizza deliveries, berets and cigars.
