Eruption!
Nobody covers a disaster like Matt Drudge. His coverage of the Mt. St. Helens “eruption” was classic. Simple headline “ERUPTION” and a dramatic, angular pic of the mountain. Cool sub-headline “Mt. St. Helens Blows…” and relevant pic and vid links are standard fare for his coverage. The major news network coverage was boring by comparison. But the real fun here is that this wasn’t even a major “eruption” by St. Helens. But the coverage on Drudge gave it that extra bit of drama. Disasters, whether real or pumped up by Matt, are a common theme at the Drudge Report. And for my money, the coverage doesn’t get better than Drudge.
