Has Drudge become part of the MSM?
Drudge Report ^ | 6/12/2018 | Vanity

Posted on 06/12/2018 6:35:47 AM PDT by Tazzo

It is my perception that Drudge is exhibiting an increasingly pro-left bias. Am I alone in my view?

It’s just Click Bait for Left Propaganda

Agree.

It's a good overview of how the liberal msm is driving narratives.

If it looks more lefty it's because msm is pushing harder on the left-wing narratives.

See the forest not the trees.

It has been over a year since I went to Drudge - he went to the dark side a long time ago.

Looks like Drudge format but loaded with ads.

The last thing I want to see is an ad showing a larger than life herpes sore when I just want to get the news.

You are not alone. Drudge would do better if he discovered the non-partisan news that’s really behind the news, but it is a real challenge to be really non-partisan.

I stopped clicking on his website when his news articles and his headlines were obviously one sided. As Sanders said to CNN Cuomo “i have yet to read one of your articles without knowing what side of the argument you are on” paraphrased. Drudge is the same now. I read Freeper and Breitbart.

You are not alone.. I seldom go to Drudge anymore.. Been disappointed by their deceptive headlines the last couple of years. Checked them this morning.. They totally miss the point.

No doubt about it...Matt Drudge has jumped ship to join the “Dark Side”. Drudge is no longer on the cutting edge either. Believe it or not, Lucianne.com has Drudge looking like he is a bench sitter.

I only scan “Drudge Report” on occasion.

The guy has become lazy. He sleeps till 10 o’ clock, wakes up, reads his email and posts links from his inbox that he likes on that day.

Looks a bit convoluted. I go to Newsbusters and Brietbart mainly.

The Trump hate oozing from Drudge before was a bit much for me, but I went over there again and I don’t know about tilting left so much as tilting toward a Weekly World News sort of orientation. If you run around talking about the stuff Drudge posts, you are going to look like a loon, and Trump voters being perceived as loons is pretty much the entire campaign strategy of the Democrats for 2018.

“I recall many “consistent conservatives” here excusing this because he, like they, were allegedly pro-Cruz (and ONLY Cruz, which meant pro-Clinton).”

I don’t recall that.

No, you’re not alone. They probably threatened him.

Trump may get around to freeing Drudge too—though he’s understandably not at the top of the list.

I use FR as my Drudge - have for years. All the news is here, sometimes earlier than other news sources. We have great volunteers.
