Dialogues

Matt, Bill, and Monica

       Here we go again. Does Matt Drudge serve a useful purpose? Do you have a right to know that Newsweek–according to Drudge and Bill Kristol–killed a story Saturday night that the president has been carrying on an Oval Office affair with a twentysomething intern? Did they? Did he?
       Could anyone in the know possibly be talking about anything else?
       Now she’s been subpoenaed to testify in the Jones case, of course …
       Should Drudge have gone with the story, David? Is the Newsweek story a story? If not Drudge, who, and why not?
       If Cokie and George and Sam and Bill get to talk about it, why shouldn’t the rest of us?
