Drudge REPOrt

I'm sure there were a zillion better ways to do this, but I'm an HTML idiot, so I just copied the entire page. That said, can anyone explain to me why Drudge, in a headline/link about Sen. Hillary Clinton, chose to spell the word "aids" entirely in capitals? (UPDATE: Drudge has now removed the headline entirely. Wonder why?) In any case, you can still see what the page looked like beforehand here:

Four possibilities (none of them mutually-contradictory, so more than one may apply).

Firstly, he may have worries about contracting Acquired Immuno-Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) and the capitalization is a Fraudian Slip. Oops, as somebody who thinks psychiatry is a pile of steaming manure, I just made a Freudian Slit myself. Ooops, and another.

Secondly, Drudge's knowledge of typography is execrable, and he may have capitalized it for emphasis, not knowing that good typography uses italics for emphasis and bold for strong emphasis.

Thirdly, Drudge's knowledge of HTML is also execrable, so he may not know how to make the word italic or bold.

Fourthly, he's a moron.

My guess is its an automatic spell checking thing.
I don't doubt for one second that he'd use an hysterical "AIDS" rather than "aids." As a result, it was prolly added to his "dictionary."

re: capturing the page, you can do a ctrl prtscn keys together [control printscreen] then paste in windows paint program, under Start| All Programs | Accessories.

the guy is such a knee-calloused whore for the fascist right, I'm surprised that you consider this newsworthy...

Anonymous said...

I'm also surprised that you (or anyone) considers 'aids' in capital letters newsworthy. Shouldn't you, like your liberal press brothers and sisters, be desperately trying to turn Cheney's hunting accident into a scandal? Why haven't you jumped on board? All your other desperate hopes to spin scandal have failed...here's your new opportunity! C'mon! Cheney had a hunting accident! That MUST mean scandal, right? Cindy Sheehan didn't help you...here's your new thing! A Vice Presidential hunting accident! That's GOT to bring down the Republican party, right?

LOL

'Ol Zeb, there's your cue (the above comment). You've been tossed your kibble. Start chewin'. If you write something REALLY clever or scathing, we'll give you a Scooby Snack.

We're all waiting...

11:11 anonymous, it'll be a scandal when the guy who gets "peppered" ends up dying from his injuries.

<< it'll be a scandal when the guy who gets "peppered" ends up dying from his injuries. >>

Not quite, Stupid. If the man dies, Cheney might face involuntary manslaughter charges - which will amount to nothing. But sadly, it will not "damage" the Republican party, as the liberal press is so DYING to make happen. Good luck with your next scandal attempt.

Teehee.
