Not sure what to make of this. Drudge has stories of black

Post by oaktonhokie »

on white violence.

Is bonw just being sensationalized by drudge?
Is there more bonw than before...as a result of the Zimmerman thing?
Is bonw violence just now getting honestly reported instead of being suppressed?

Worrisome, regardless of the reason.

I'd say the Zimmerman case is playing a part. Drudge, like most other websites, is out to make money. This is an easy go-to after the Zimmerman trial to generate page views.

I appreciate your skepticism, but Drudge is also an activist. That's how he got started in the first place, we was tired of the one sided stories we got from the MSN and so did something about it. I doubt this is just about page clicks. Look at it this way, if it were then why risk being labeled a racist website? That would kill page clicks. I'm not sure if he is making a statement about BoW crime or if there is an uptick, but I doubt this is purely financial.

I agree, Brother awesome guy. I didn't mean to make it sound like as if it were purely money-driven.
