Drudge jumps over major media

Good day for Drudge- He got to trump major media on the first exit poll numbers, and he also broke the Philadelphia voting problems story this morning.

CBS Marketwatch news story credits Drudge with the stock market response to the early exit poll numbers:

Dow dips into negative territory ($INDU) By Tomi Kilgore
NEW YORK (CBS.MW) — The Dow industrials ($INDU) dipped briefly into negative territory after a late-day sell-off erased earlier gains of as much as 79 points. The Dow was last up 6 points at 10,061, but hit a low of 10,047 a few minutes earlier. “The only thing I can see is that the Drudge Report shows the preliminary exit polls showing Kerry within striking distance,” said Jay Suskind, director of trading of Ryan, Beck & Co. Miller Tabak equity strategist Peter Boockvar said the fall was on nothing in particular, but also mentioned the Drudge Report showing that Kerry was running more competitively than initially thought.

If you were wondering the kind of power Drudge has.
