I kinda feel like i’m from the Men in Black, i go to youtube to get obscure videos, unedited, often graphic, often uncensored. A recent unflattered cgi video from Tomo News about Trump was hilarious.
FR is where I get all my news. Everything posted on Drudge shows up on FR.
Some things but not everything.
Thank you Matt, and THANK YOU, Jim Robinson!
Drudge Report is my home page.
Guess I thought DRUDGE gets his news from other news gatherers, networks, etc.
I met Drudge at Free Republic events......twice
Yeah, but Drudge has too much spam. It has so much spam that his servers should be based out of Hawaii.

And, one page of the most basic html that hasn’t really changed since the beginning. Genius!
My home page.
A fellow Freeper posted an article about Ad Blocker Plus. It works great.
I get my news from FR too, Drudge is too limited with just headlines. I very rarely go to Drudge, it’s all here.
Here at FR all the Drudge stuff lands (and vice versa) but with a few lines of articles...you can get a little info from that excerpt or choose to click to read the whole article.
Also at FR, the comments usually are far more informative than the articles they are being posted under.
I am by far not an Internet novice. And I find the Drudge website nearly impossible to follow. The format is arcane. If someone sends me a link or it is posted on FB (which actually is rare to see a Drudge link on FB) - if I click on the link to the Drudge headline - 99% of the time - the link does not take me to the story ... it takes me to some generic page where I have to search for the headline... So more often than not - I give up. I guess I just miss the point ... If information is not where a link says it to be — then it is easy for me (if the subject is important) to just google it ... Whatever Drudge is doing and that some many people find it wonderful - then fine.. but Drudge is mostly useless to me for reasons cited. If I click on a news link I want it to take me EXACTLY to the story - not some page filled with story notices and I have to look for the story... BTW — I use three different browsers and it is the same result regardless of browser... I am happy that Drudge has made it big for what does it do?
Page views are so 1995.
Unique visitors is what is important.
Also at FR, the comments usually are far more informative than the articles they are being posted under.
Me too.... Only, much longer.

I still check out Drudge daily but it seems he takes weekends off (can’t blame him but the site suffers for it). He doesn’t break nearly as much news as he once did.
