This reader makes a fair point, though Drudge and The Washington Post are different institutions:
I do not remember anyone from the corner questioning whether it was appropriate that Drudge and others reported that Kerry ushered an expletive at a secret service agent who ran into him on the ski slopes. If that was news, then surely Dick Cheney swearing at a senator on the floor of the senate would qualify as newsworthy. You cannot have it both ways.
