Just wanted to start a thread about how Drudge has turned into an Anti-America propoganda haven.
I expected better, so close to the midterms, just proves... HE GONE!
Somebody probably has the real Drudge locked away in a footlocker like Mad-Eye Moody in Goblet of Fire!!
Drudge has sucked for a very long time now.
(figuratively AND literally)
I was just there and I had the very same thought
I haven't been to Drudge in two years. Yes he is an aggregate & I get what you are saying about "being protected." The thing is, after the election, he only began to aggregate negative Trump articles. OK, fine. I can handle that.
But at the same time the economy was (and still is) taking off after 8 years of 0bama. Very rarely did he post positive job/economic numbers. OR, he would post them for an hour, but have some very negative blaring headline for the whole day. I stayed, but noticed this trend for several more months. Then I said screw it, I refuse to give him any more "hits" that he so proudly boasts about on his own site. And never went back.
Ask yourself, if there is a good headline posted, how long does it remain posted compared to a negative (usually BS story) headline? Or do you even know about positive Trump news, because you only watch Drudge?
Mark Levin called him out today on the radio show without naming his name.
Just recently discovered Levin podcast. Lovin’ me some Levin!
The Drudge Report does seem to have a different feel to it, a different vibe. I often wonder if Drudge is less involved than he used to be and has staff run the page now. He doesn’t seem liberal or anti-Trump to me the way some other comments here claim, but the attitude of the site does seem different. President Trump is winning big, and the Drudge Report seems doom and gloom and all to often ignores the success. I don’t visit drudge near as much as I used to. FR is the best place to get the headlines.
I can’t stand the annoyingads on Liberty Daily and it doesn’t update NEARLY as often as Citizen Free Press.
CFP is run by a guy who used to work for Lou Dobbs.

I agree, Drudge drank the kool-aid and can no longer be trusted. Sad.
I just found he had a segment on Fox the other night when he chatted with Newt. Will have to check if he does this weekly or if this was just a special segment.
I really really enjoyed it because it was all discussion....nobody raising their voices and none of the drama so often seen in the news cycles..
Drudge’ looks like a tabloid report anymore.....lots of ‘junk ‘stuff to wade past.
But he’s had a lot of tabloid type articles he links.....there’s always been some interesting side ‘shows’ but the junk he’s linking is like he’s lost the edge he once had.
Drudge was a trend setter, but like so many he has wilted to the adoration of the left and trying to be admired in their eyes. He has become anti trump and it shows. At the of the day, thats his right.
From everything I’ve seen of Matt Drudge, he’s kind of a strange cat indeed.
But the site isn’t leftist at all. He wasn’t a Trump guy until he announced several months into the campaign that he was ‘now a Trump supporter’.
It’s the quality of his site that has pushed me away. loaded with spyware, bad code calls, even flat out crashing my browser. And I’m not alone in this. He puts up any ad that anyone sends him.
The site is still on the right side of the argument, but it’s not the quality site that it used to be. Breitbart is way, way better ... Especially after seeing Andrew likely killed by dem operatives. And yes, I do believe he was killed.
Dont go being reasonable now
Liberty Daily is the ONLY choice for me! Drudge is “ one of them!”
