Drudge Headlines

Hilarious. Drudge links to this story with the headline:

Clinton Library Got Funds From Abroad; Saudis Said to Have Given $10 Million...


To be fair, the WaPo does have "Clinton Library Got Funds From Abroad" as their headline, but for Drudge to add the line about the Saudis, and leave out what comes in the second sentence of the story is just too funny:


Bill Clinton's presidential library raised more than 10 percent of the cost of its $165 million facility from foreign sources, with the most generous overseas donation coming from Saudi Arabia, according to interviews yesterday.

The royal family of Saudi Arabia gave the Clinton facility in Little Rock about $10 million, roughly the same amount it gave toward the presidential library of George H.W. Bush, according to people directly familiar with the contributions.


Why doesn't the headline say, "Bush Sr. Got Funds From Abroad"?

Whatever.

Digg!
