"Asked why the conservative-leaning news aggregator and President Barack
Obama critic was flagged by Internet security officials, Tracy Schmaler,
a Department of Justice
<http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0509/22508.html>  spokeswoman,
said it was because "a malicious code was found contained in a Web ad on
Drudge.""

 

How come only the DOJ knows about this and nobody else?
