Geraldo Rivera: Matt Drudge ‘doing his best to stir up a civil war’
Washington Times ^ | 7/31/14 | Jessica Chasmar

Posted on 07/31/2014 12:13:29 PM PDT by Impala64ssa

Fox News host Geraldo Rivera has accused conservative blogger Matt Drudge of trying to inflame conservatives and “stir up a civil war,” due to his website’s aggressive coverage of the border crisis.

“Shame on Drudge,” Mr. Rivera tweeted Wednesday morning. “His authoritative website has gone hysterical on issue of immigrant children. 14 stories like ‘Could Ebola sneak across?’”

Mr. Rivera argued during his radio show that Mr. Drudge, founder of “the most powerful website,” is “doing his best to stir up a civil war” with his headlines, Mediaite reported.

“This is exactly what they did to the Irish in the 19th century, and to the Chinese in the 19th century, and then to the Jews and the Italians in the 20th century,” he said. “Not only do they bring crime, they bring disease. Be afraid! Hide your daughters!”

Oh, Whorealdo stop being a drama queen! What Drudge is doing is really no different than what a then relatively unknown Geraldo Rivera did back in the early 70's when he blew the lid off the abuses going on in the NYC-run mental hospitals. Geraldo, you were absolutely right back then, so is Drudge today, get off the moral high horse.

The bully’s lament of “It all started when he hit back.” has been taken to a new level.

Just the facts, please: ” - - - “The evidence shows that the amnesty President Obama announced in 2012 is driving record numbers of immigrants to enter our nation illegally,” Cruz said in a statement Tuesday. “ Because of President Obama’s amnesty, children are being abused and exploited by dangerous drug cartels and transnational gangs.” - - - “

Yes, offering a platform for an alternative point of view and an airing of concerns over our national direction is 'inciting a civil war'.

A perfectly understandable point of view if you're a authoritarian statist.

I saw this headline. The first thing I did is go to see what I missed on Drudge.

Geraldo suggesting someone else is doing Yellow Journalism? That is sweet.

If you do not fall in line with the left, you are hateful, divisive and now pushing for civil war. If unity is so very important to these folks, why don’t they just join us.

Who’s really inflaming a civil war???

Gippetto sure does make me laugh...He’s a funny guy...He should do standup comedy...

BTW, Impala...Geraldo does not have a moral high horse...He has no morals...Nor any virtue for that matter...If he comes on any program I am watching at the time, it doesn’t matter who it is...I seek life and entertainment elsewhere...

/he is a waste of time and space as far as I am concerned, therefore his opinion(s) or commentary is vacant of any substance or reason...

But this is just my opinion...

It will not be CW 2.0, it will be 1776 2.0, removing an abusive regime.

Help me out here, folks.

Since Drudge just links to other articles found in various news outlets around this country, and the rest of the world, just how is he fomenting “civil war”?

I just see him as a provider of headlines, but maybe I am what Lois Lerner might call an “a-hole emeritus”.
