Conservative news aggregator Matt Drudge upset some prominent members of his fan base last week when his website featured a “Black Lives Kill” headline following the attack on police officers in Dallas.

The attack left five police officers killed and (Business Insider‘s) Oliver Darcy called Drudge’s word a “race-baiting headline,” while calling Drudge a “once reliable ally who has become more and more divisive” to conservatives.

“I just deleted my Drudge app,” National Review writer David French declared on Twitter after seeing the controversial headline.

Every “Conservative” they cite is a RINO or NeoCon NeverTrumper. Yawn.

[I want the USA back]

Meaningless words. Lives don’t kill. Either say it in English or don’t say anything.

[TADSLOS]

When did National Review reverse course and become the bastion of conservatism again?

[Ohioan]

I couldn't remember ever hearing the name; but thankfully, you reminded me that I had.

Calling the Neocon Kristol's proposed camdidate for President a "Conservative" is quite a stretch.

Just another fantasy narrative to serve an agenda that is neither Conservative nor American.

[Lent]

Sounds like GOPe or faux Conservatives.

NPR was very good in the 1980’s. There was no internet back then and they were one of the few sources of independent and intellectual thought. I was a subscriber back then and very impressed with them.

They slowly went downhill in the 1990’s and by the early 2000’s it was not worth reading.

OH BOO FREAKING HOO

He and his wife adopted a black child, so I guess they are now the great white protectors of all things black.

Is this French guy the dream candidate of Bill Krystol?

The Goldberg-Lowry duo destroyed whatever conservative principles NRO ever had. VDH and Andrew McCarthy are still solid voices on foreign policy but even they won’t defy the GOP-e. NRO’s threshold for what consititues a “conservative” has been so watered down as to be almost unrecogizable. And they don’t seem to understand that many people backing Trump understand he’s not a movement conservative, but that he’s what is necessary to stare down the political establishment in Washington and hopefully turn back some of Obama’s excesses. Trust doesn’t have the election in the bag but a milqtoast candidate like Rubio wouldn’t have a chance against Clinton. This fight is going to be brutal and the GOP needs a street fighter - not a policy analyst.

Instead of deleting Drudge, how about we delete every post made by the NRO.

[Company Man]

It sure as hell doesn’t bother me. Soros should swing for his crimes against humanity.

[Gaffer]

I applaud Drudge loudly

[JBW1949]

All this shows is that Drudge is on the right path.....

Disgusting that he left a little fag boy in charge.

Dana PeRino loves him.

Can someone develop an app to let me know who is on who’s side from moment to moment?
