Conservative news aggregator Matt Drudge appears to be telling the world that he no longer owns or operates his flagship website The Drudge Report.
In the bio of his official news feed on Twitter, Drudge describes The Drudge Report as a news aggregation website that he used to run, and suggests it was formerly based in the U.S.

“The DRUDGE REPORT was a U.S. based news aggregation website run by Matt Drudge (@DRUDGE),” the bio reads.
The mysterious change to his Twitter bio comes as several other conservatives try to compete with Drudge with their own news aggregation websites, such as BonginoReport.com, TheLibertyDaily.com, and Gab Trends.
In fact, Drudge actually promoted his competitors last month, noting that they’re “gaining ground” against his website, which is the top news website in the world.
“The Drudge Report is still the king of conservative aggregator websites, but its rivals are gaining ground,” Drudge tweeted.
However, the conservative news icon appeared to criticize former secret service agent Dan Bongino’s news website as boring on Saturday.
“Trust the plan/hope and change the Bongino Report is live. He used to be a secret service agent. [Snooze emoji] Enjoy the show,” he tweeted.
Alex Jones offered several theories regarding Drudge’s odd Twitter bio change.
“Taking Drudge’s tweet at face value, one of three things has happened: Drudge accidentally made two typos in his Twitter bio in the middle of this huge Drudge Report controversy, Matt Drudge has sold the Drudge Report and is cryptically signaling in his mysterious style, or he’s been kidnapped by drooling deep staters who have now stolen his identity,” Jones said.
“But regardless, the ever-reclusive Drudge needs to make a public appearance soon or the suspense will only continue to be hyped, which we know he hates.”

$$$$ he built the brand and then sold it. Happens all the time
If Drudge sold out, he should have removed his name from the site by contract. The Drudge Report was more than money — it was a bastion. Now, as every day passes, he looks a simpering wimp. — whether he still owns the site or not.
He made millions from it each year.
Bought by Soros?
Daniel Halper, formerly of the Weekly Standard, responsible for Drudge’s new leftward direction?
WIKI:
Daniel Halper is an American political writer. In 2017, he became an editor for the Drudge Report where he has steered the news-site in an Anti-Trump direction.
Could be. If somebody did that with a website that I owned, I’m sure I’d take it.
I believe the proprieters of both the Gateway Pundit and the Conservative Treehouse are also gay.
This kind of explains a lot as to the ultra liberal take on Drudge during the past couple months. I wonder how long the transfer has been in the works and when the new owners/managers started to influence what was posted.

so what.
People often cash out at the end of their work life.
Not unusual.
It is unusual that someone would be critical and suspicious of them doing so.
Doesn’t change what I said, or history.
If you admitted at most elite colleges that you voted for Trump you would also be ostracized and possibly assaulted. Look at the many videos of just that happening. So by your logic there can't be any conservatives on college campuses either. But not every college student is a leftist.
You need to open your eyes, or get out of the house more.
I don’t believe that he sold it. I think he’s still running it.

Well you may believe what you wish, and apparently you look for the worst, however that is what is being published.
Unless of course, it is a conspiracy.
You’re dumb.
I never said EVERY gay person was leftist, just a huge majority of them. Same with colleges and their students, even in conservative Utah. That was tons of fun after doing an enlistment in the Navy—NOT. That’s my experience, how about you? Instead of bellowing like an angry housewife on Oprah, you’ve got a big ole canvas to tell me how it really is and how every gay person I’ve ever met being a raving leftist is just plain wrong.
I don’t know what you’re getting so pissed about, better check your pillbox, you seem to have missed a dose.
The internet is curious.
Yes, several times a day I would check it. First thing I would do in the morning on the computer. It's like kicking an addiction cold turkey, I suppose. But we're better off for it.
