All The Drudge Report consists of is a page with links to news stories that Drudge finds relevant. So what could a chimp like Pfeiffer object to in this?

Drudge since its inception has been pulling stuff directly from the wire feeds - just as the ordinary media does. The stuff on Drudge is the other stuff that the ordinary media either don’t care about or don’t want us to know about.

And since the media and the democrats are one and the same, of course they don’t like that Drudge upsets the apple cart.

It’s like shining a light on cockroaches! They prefer to do their work in the dark so nobody can see.

Yes, exposing you to the light is bad...

Informing people of what you are up to is bad...

We get it.

“The Drudge Report ‘Hurts What We’re Trying To Do’”

Exactly. That’s the entire point!

The Drudge Report 'Hurts What We're Trying To Do'

They hate that it's still a little complicated to just put a bullet in somebody like Matt Drudge's head.

They working on simplifying such encumbrances though.

Any government that can’t stand up to criticism is not a government. It’s a scheme.

“Hurting what they’re trying to do” is music to the ears!

Now if Drudge could hire some genuine, old-fashioned investigative journalists to expand his coverage

Imagine, a news organization that is not an arm of the administration?

Then imagine same organization, seen by millions.

Oh the Huge Manatee.

I think I’ll sign up for Drudge’s pay site.

Sounds like he’s realized or been given the memo that FauxNews is on Hussein’s side, and now they’re going after the next place that won’t exactly regurgitate the news they’ve been told to by his god Hussein.

That’s the point of the 1st ammendment. Clearly, the administration is for placing limits on the 1st ammendment, but they need to limit the 2nd first.

One has to wonder if when a reporter refers to a question raised from the NYT, does an Administration official ask him/her to repeat what s/he just said to understand how ridiculous the question is?

Pfeiffer said that he was "ambivalent" to what Matt Drudge links to on his website, but he lamented that the site led to a "Pavlovian response" from reporters.

I'm sure they would much prefer the "Tingles response" like they get from MSNBC.

The newspaper of the founding period was the "Drudge Report" of today. With that in mind:
"Were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter." - Thomas Jefferson

"It hurts what we're trying to do. . . ." - Pfeiffer. Well, isn't the idea of a "free press" intended to spread information so that "the People" are so informed that they can make their own decisions and, perhaps, oppose what their government "is trying to do," if it interferes with their liberty?

“If once the people become inattentive to the public affairs, you and I, and Congress and Assemblies, Judges and Governors, shall all become wolves. It seems to be the law of our general nature, in spite of individual exceptions.” - Thomas Jefferson

That technology has made the "newspaper" almost instantaneous in its delivery of information is, by its very nature, frustrating to an Administration which must collude with Senate Presidents and House Speakers to pass legislation in the middle of night which, by their very own admission, must be "passed so that we can find out what's in it."

At least Pfeiffer is honest about their frustration.
