Followup on Republican Editor: Fired

On the republican Playgirl editor-in-chief from DRUDGE:
"Zipp, in an e-mail, claims she was fired after an onslaught of liberal backlash.

'Hello Drudge,

'After your coverage of my article about coming out and voting Republican, I did receive many letters of support from fellow Republican voters, but it was not without repercussions. Criticism from the liberal left ensued. A few days after the onslaught of liberal backlash, I was released from my duties at Playgirl magazine.

'After underlings expressed their disinterest of working for an outed Republican editor, I have a strong suspicion that my position was no longer valued by Playgirl executives. I also received a phone call from a leading official from Playgirl magazine, in which he stated with a laugh, 'I wouldn't have hired you if I knew you were a Republican."
