I bet drudge feels a fool
Reporting that Sharon is dead only to have to retract it. Does anyone know what that website is that archives drudge's headlines? I would love to have a link to show.

1. I think it was the World Tribune website that reported it. Drudge just
linked to it.

7. Yesterday I had to make a trip to my hometown. On the drive over
I listened to C-Span on XM Radio (not a big fan of Springer). Anyway, I caught an interview with Tim Groseclose, Poly Sci Professor at UCLA that conducted an in depth study on determining if the media was biased. This guy must have been smoking something really good. Said the top five "fairest" media outlets were - (not sure of the exact order) - CNN, The Drudge Report and Brit Hume's show. Also, said that the media does tend toward a liberal bias. I couldn't believe the nonsense he was spewing. I would love to know his political affiliation (said he took great efforts to ensure that his student encoders did not use their political bias to slant the study.

Tim Groseclose, Political Science Professor, UCLA
Tim Groseclose, Political Science Professor, UCLA discusses his recent UCLA-led study that found that media bias is real. The study is arguably the first successful attempt at objectively quantifying bias in a range of media outlets and ranking them accordingly.

Did anybody hear this asswipe? Was I missing something in that interview? It CAN'T be right. Drudge and Brit Hume in the top five. Puhleeze!

6. Easy to find here ...
Just type in "Arial Sharon" in the search box and the World Trib story is the first that appears ... declaring Sharon dead at 6AM (EST).
