Matt Drudge May Boot NY Times Columnists
Cyber-newsman Matt Drudge is threatening to boot the New York Times’ columnists from his popular Drudge Report Web site after the Times announced it will begin charging for access to their columns.
"I will yank the Times scribes if I can’t find other outlets that are planning to carry them,” said Drudge. "The Internet is losing its innocence.”
where's that siren.

5. Translation: he's a cheap-ass motherf*&%#$ |

"I will yank the Times scribes..." that's rich.
His LINKS won't work 'cause it'll cost money to get Times Select. The Times will be Yanking his access...not the reverse.
What an ultra-maroon.

allow that well-heeled motherfucker (yes, he's rich) to hotlink their images? They're paying for a good chunk of bandwidth that should rightfully be on his dime, to no benefit to themselves.
