Response to Original message |
| 21. Why this is important for TO: It would be Drudge breaking Lewinsky |
|
Except more important.
I posted this on the other thread, but felt it was a pretty good thought:
Drudge proved that the "Old Media" can no longer control access to the news. If a magazine like Newsweek spikes a story, the Internet will get it eventually.
This ...this is a whole other kettle of fish. This would prove that the New Media can break the major story of the year on its own and based on its own reporting.
Rove would be the highest ranking, sitting White House official EVER indicted I believe. (Everyone who went down in Watergate resigned first). This would be the top news story of the year.
And little Truth Out broke it.
That's what is at stake.
