Conservatives have contended that the “liberal media” are so opposed to the war that reporters will reveal information--for example, the program to monitor terrorist finances--harmful to America’s interest. Such reporting ultimately costs lives.
But now we have the Drudge Report disclosing that Prince Harry was serving on active duty in Afghanistan. Because this revelation not only endangers Prince Harry but the British troops whom he serves with, Harry will return home.
Matthew Drudge rose to prominence in the 1990’s during the Lewinsky scandal, and his site is considered to be aligned with conservative groups. Regardless, both conservative and liberal patriots should decry his act of placing self interest above the national interest. Count me as one Internet user who won’t be clicking on the Drudge Report any more.
