In this world we may have knowledge or repose but we may not have both. The human condition is a series of decisions; we either deal with them or circumstances deal with us. Once a bell is rung in our presence we cannot un-ring it. All of these apply to our relationship to the Drudge Report.
For years we have looked to Matt Drudge and his Drudge Report as a place where we could get some actual news. During the presidential election cycle last year this was especially true. While the foaming-at-the-mouth liars in the media churned out their disinformation day after day we at least had Drudge as a kind of Radio Free America. He posted surveys which showed that Donald Trump was clearly on his way to the Republican nomination and his fairly presented news kept alive the hope that Trump could and would win the election, saving us from another Clinton presidency.
Nevertheless, like a doctor who continually works in wards full of people with various illnesses and finally succumbs to one of these severe maladies, sometime earlier this year Drudge fell ill with hubris and began to believe that it was he who elected Trump rather than us. He began acting like he could punish Trump for any number of transgressions his whimsical little mind imagined. He published the results of polls proved to be faked by irrefutable, Wiki-Leaked emails. That was no problem for Drudge. He just made believe the stories he carried (often alone) where not true and the faked polls were honest reflections of dwindling support for Trump. It was a creeping change that was hard to discern at first.
Then came Trump’s ban of so-called transgender soldiers and Drudge’s gloves came off completely. He is now just as much an enemy of ours as CNN. Some say this is because Matt Drudge is a homosexual, others say it is a manifestation of the disease of liberalism Drudge has come down with. Personally I don’t care why Drudge has turned on us and I do mean us. I just want him off my favorites list because Donald Trump is the only person standing in the way of the total destruction of our way of life.
It is now time to turn on Drudge and put him down. As happens when any enterprise is successful, imitators will appear and a very good and satisfying alternative to the anti-American Drudge Report has arisen. It is http://thelibertydaily.com where honest descriptions of our enemies abound and truth reigns.
Why add to Drudge’s questionable hits numbers and be insulted and mocked by his slanted headlines?

By the way what have you done lately to deserve to live in America?
You make it sound like he writes about the news that he links from around the world.
The news is the news. It is what it is. Drudge doesn't control the happenings of the day. He just bundles them on his site so others can go the the links and make their own decisions.
Drudge is not an editorial writer. He doesn't "write" straw man arguments.
2) I completely understand what Drudge is. I've been going there since 1998. Drudge's headlines usually do not match the title of the article, especially on the top 1/3 of the blog. Drudge also has the option to NOT link the article or to mock the article as well. To say that Drudge does not editorialize is fantasy. He ALWAYS titles the link based on his opinion.
If you don't like his site anymore, just don't go there.
But there is no need to go on FR and announce that you don't like him anymore.
Like I said twice previously, if you don't like the Drudge site, don't do there. You don't have to argue endlessly about the reasons you don't go there anymore.
But I'm certain that if you gave Matt a heads up, he'd let you write the link titles and headlines that you approve of. :-)
I'm just saying......
Like I said twice previously, if you don't like the Drudge site, don't do there. You don't have to argue endlessly about the reasons you don't go there anymore.
LOL Endlessly? I made ONE comment about it and you started throwing out straw-man arguments and acting like the world was ending. The only one who is endlessly arguing on this thread is you - with seemingly everyone who dares criticize Drudge.
If you had read my next comment, I explained how I knew. You accused me of not liking Drudge’s headline, but the fact is, I never saw it. A large swarm of young conservatives saw it, though, and they were livid. They all swore off Drudge’s site.
The point is, I only learned about it from other conservatives who were up in arms. Defend him all you want, but he’s alienating some very active conservatives. Probably he won’t mind. He’ll just replace them with liberal readers. Why would he care? He’ll get the same number of visits.
BTW, the only straw I see here is the straw in your skull where your brains should be. Try making your argument without calling me dense. Payback is a b*tch.
Why are you still commenting?
Same reason I am.
See how that works?
We could do this all day but I have cows to tend to. Bye.
I gave up Drudge years ago.
I instinctively shied from Drudge beginning many months ago, before seeing anything concrete online about his change.
Citizen Free Press.
Liberty Daily.
Incoherent ramblings to go along with your straw man and hypocritical statement. Nice work.
Thanks! Just added Liberty Daily to my favorites and deleted Drudge.
