While as a liberal, I do not suggest the following with a great deal of pleasure, but Matt Drudge is by far the single most influential person in the American media, and it is fair to ask: Is he the second most influential man in America?

For more than any individual in the media, Drudge dominates his competitors to the degree that he has no competitors, and determines what you watch on television, what you read in newspapers, what you hear and radio, and even what you read on the Internet about politics more than any single person in American history

Reading this I can’t help remembering that email is sent out daily by some Dem operative each AM which gave the leftist newsrooms in America their talking points.

I cannot remember the author of the email, some backroom, not very important media/governmental functionary IIRC.

Anyone come up with links? It seems to be buried.

Drudge may be influential but the covert planned control of the leftist media is underhanded and manipulated. Limbaugh’s funny segments about how the newsroom media readers repeat these leftist agenda talking points was both amusing and tragic.

From a historical perspective Drudge will be remembered as a hero for breaking the monopoly of total socialist control of American media. He pioneered the alternate, then preferred new media on the internet and his work along with JimRob’s inspired an entire generation of free thinkers who cast off the chains of socialist propaganda that was promoted on the old “lame stream” media outlets.

If he is, maybe it’s because he’s doing the work you liberals lapdogs refuse to do.

It also demonstrates that there’s a huge market for unbiased news reporting. But don’t let that deter you from your left-wing agenda.

We’ll wave to you from the deck as your ship sinks.
