THE MAIN EVENT:

Brawling With Barbra Online (JOHN SCHWARTZ, October 6, 2002, NY Times)

THE Internet is a terrific place to have a brawl, at least if you want a crowd. Post, riposte, with a potential audience of millions.

In this case, the combatants are Barbra Streisand, heavyweight celebrity and liberal, in one corner; Matt Drudge, heavyweight Internet gossip columnist and conservative, in the other.

Babs better have a good cut man, because Drudge is about two good shots away from turning her into Duk Koo Kim. Posted by Orrin Judd at October 6, 2002 8:07 AM
