Drudge posted TWICE yesterday that the Pope had died!
Just goes to show he'd rather be the first to report a story rather than having his facts straight! How does this ass clown get away with it?

3. Did he mention which one?
Or is he telling us previous popes are still dead? If called on it, the slimy little fill-in-your-own-word will find a loophole.

5. All my friends are talking about it
Sirens went up in the morning then about 45 minuts later saying the Pope is dead. I swear, Matt needs to be the first to report on this. I noticed his whole page is devoted to the Pope. Nothing but Pope related stories.

9. Yep. Only MSNBC didn't run with it like a bat out of hell
They waited to, you know, actually confirm it with a Vatican official.

The Tom Brokow rule: "We may not get it first, but we'll be the first to get it right."
