Drudge blows it again...

He simply makes stuff up to get the "scoop."
He hasn't had a credible "scoop" since the blue dress.

It is no secret that Matt Drudge from Drudgereport uses crazy headlines to stoke the right wing lunatic base. This example here that was just released moments ago claims that lightning struck a Mosque in Mecca killing, 60 people. Of course the only truth so far is that 60 people have possibly died, but links to the actual story from RT News make absolutely no claims that any lightning struck anywhere, especially the Mosque. It does say, however, that a crane collapse occurred which was responsible for the injuries and death toll.

2. High winds in a storm

According to last night's BBC news, a thunderstorm hit Mecca with very winds and the winds are what caused the crane to collapse.

3. You're right.

In fact there is even video of the crane falling in a high wind.

Sludge is a has-been, he's been overshadowed by such "luminaries" as Faux "news" and Breitbart.
