But we are living in a new media environment where people can send e-mails. There are a lot of different ways now to communicate. And again, this is a clear example where people rose up, because it was hurtful and vicious on a beloved American character.

Drudge: It's The Beginning Of A Second Media Century

Got that right.

The stranglehold the left had on the media has been broken. The 40-year culture war, which the left was winning, took a big right turn today.

Rush Limbaugh started this, and Matt Drudge picked up the gaunlet. Talk radio and the internet changed everything.

Inquiring minds would like to know who might be the Showtime sponsors of such a "political hit job," just so a few letters can be written to companies to express opinions regarding the purchase of products by those that want to sponsor such rubbish.

The Fox News, talk radio, internet AXIS OF TRUTH strikes again!

[Uncle Hal]

There are 3 recent events that have changed the political landscape, they are: 1)The internet, 2)cable news stations particulary FNC, and 3) conservative talk radio. Blogs are coming up fast and may qualify as the 4th item of change but they are basically part of the internet. No more does the liberal media control the information highway and it is really pissed. They will do anything to get their control back. We must be vigilent.

It was talk radio and Drudge that did it. FR played some role, albeit one of organizing people to tell the uninformed.

Drudge and talk radio are universal media. Almost all Internet sites are not by virtue of their very limited audience sizes.

A lot of folks will taking credit for this victory of turth over slime, but it was matt who got them all going......

I say God Bless him, I wish I could interview him for my TV show, and give him the credit he deserves......

It used to be you would consume the product, and then you would get outraged, and you wouldn't have an outlet.

bump to that

Thanks, lainie!

I'm really proud of Matt. Folks often dismiss him as a lightweight, but he has an uncanny knack for finding those gems that push the buttons of conservatives that galvanize them into action. And it's all to seldom we get to see tangible wins like this one-- even for something as ham-handed as CBS trying to foist a hit-piece about the Reagans on the American public!

Once again, he's at the forefront of covering news that the news tries to bury. I hope Matt is with us for a long time and keeps digging at all those phonies and empty suits in Hollywood and DC.
