"Breitbart.com" is a MATT DRUDGE FRONT SITE!
Just in case you didn't know, "breitbart.com" is owned by a close freind of Matt Drudge's, and Drudge likes to link to him to kick some money via hits to his fellow right-winger.

Please try not to click on breitbart links. All breitbart stories are culled from the major wire services like AP and UPI, so if you see or are forwarded a link to a breitbart story that looks interesting, DON'T click on it! Google the title in news and you will find direct links to the wire service versions of the story.

Don't add to Drudge's, or his pal's hit counts!

1. I'm pleased to report...
...that I've never heard of this breitbart of which you speak.

2. Me either. And I haven't been over to Drudge's site in a couple of years.
But then again, I hate it when I know people are intentionally trying to yank my chain.

3. There is no way of knowing whether it is a breitbart site
until after you click on the link.

4. I don't know about your browser...
But mine displays the link's url on the bottom left hand corner when you put the cursor over the link, even without clicking, even if the URL isn't shown in the hyperlink title...
