I thought that was kind of the point

In one of my favorite sequences from "Love and Death," Boris justifies the (proposed) assassination of Napoleon thus: "You're a tyrant and a dictator and you start wars!"

Napoleon turns to Sonja: "Why is he reciting my credits?"

Similarly, when The Fox Nation gets a case of the vapors over the idea that the Drudge Report might be, you know, sort of a clearinghouse for made-up stories, one is tempted to ask: Wasn't that the point in the first place?
