I don’t think Drudge is left or right. He just aggregates headlines. He gets accused of being right because the media in general is so far left of him he stands out.

My thoughts exactly.
By the way, I noticed a discussion in this thread about Drudge once linking to FR. As I recall that link was dropped when a few discussions got going about him in here and people started piling on by criticizing the hell out of him. Whether it was one specific criticism, or many, I don’t recall, but suddenly that link was no more.
Anyone else remember that episode a little more clearly? Or maybe it didn’t happen that way at all?
Anyway, He’s been my home page for a long, long time...over 20 years, and I don’t think he’s changed much over the years. He does seem to promote certain candidates at times, however, and pick on others, but if one of his favorites steps in it, you’ll usually find a link on his site regardless.
His real talent is finding some of the stranger stories out there and then linking to them with irresistible headlines.
