If it wasnt Drudge, would it not have come from the group that interviewed him? Of course, they may well have leaked the "out" to Drudge on purpose, as to have an outlet for their story. To leak it out takes the sting out and makes a story you would have to hold instantly relevant and then able to be used or benefit.
Boycott all you want, but I think it a simplistic and futile endeavour.
