But, you will note that Channel 7 in Boston did indeed carry the speech.

If anyone saw a few seconds of a commercial interrupting the local 
summation before we went back to net, be assured that this was just a 
technical glitch and nothing more.  There is no way I would have done 
that on purpose, considering all the s--t I had to take afterwards.

In reading the Drudge Report, if you were confused by the word 
"Fluke" being used as a verb, it is referring to a Fluke touch-screen 
controller that controls our auxiliary dish and receiver.  Thus, to 
Fluke is to move the dish and receiver to a particular satellite and 
transponder.

I also find it interesting that Drudge includes a copyright notice on 
a posting consisting of stolen confidential material.
