New York (CNN)In a rare statement, Matt Drudge, the prominent conservative news mogul, refuted President Trump's Saturday claim that traffic to his website has plummeted as its coverage has grown more critical of him. "The past 30 days has been the most eyeballs in Drudge Report's 26 year-history," Drudge said in an email to CNN. "Heartbreaking that it has been under such tragic circumstances."
Matt Drudge, an influential figure in conservative media, sours on Trump as he faces impeachment
The Drudge Report, founded in 1995, is arguably the most influential conservative news website. Drudge rarely reports or writes stories himself. Rather, he and his site serve as an aggregator, linking to other news organizations — and often providing them with large volumes of traffic.
Drudge supported Trump during the 2016 presidential election and in the early days of the Trump presidency was even a frequent visitor to the White House. But since the summer of 2019, the Drudge Report has spotlighted a significant amount of negative news about the Trump.

that should read Former-Conservative
Sometime next year or right after the election information on who owns his company will be revealed. It is owned by foreigners who are liberal.
I haven’t looked at Drudge for years, but I didn’t think he was all that conservative since Google bought him out. Of course CNN considers the Squad to be a centrists.
CNN is FAKE NEWS! (followed closely by MSNBC)
Drudge is irrelevant now, has been for years.
He sounded like a nasty little faggot on his brief TV show (maybe that's because he IS).
Also deleted Drudge from my Favorites & haven’t viewed it in several months opting to view this look-alike instead:
Haven’t clicked on Drudge for over a year.
Does Matt Drudge still have a site? I used to rely on it for news.
Trump does not need Drudge he has Free Republic!
I dont use drudge anymore
Looked at the site twice in recent weeks and it was all doom porn
Drudge admitted a few months ago that he sold his company and doesn’t have any control over the content. He’s just being paid to be a celebrity by his former company, or so it seems. He simply sold out and is a slave to his paymasters, I think.
“The Drudge Report, founded in 1995, is arguably the most influential conservative news website.”
Ha ha ha ha ha! OMG...LOL!
CNN is sooooo out out it, eh? Try this accurate take, CNN:
“The Drudge Report, founded in 1995, was at one time arguably the most influential conservative news website, until Drudge sold it to Google and Google swung it leftward.”
Drudge is no longer in any way a conservative website.
I can’t remember the last time I went to the Drudge site. It may have been shortly after the Lewinsky episode.
That fag is no conservative
Drudge: “Please oh please oh please, just another 15 minutes of fame?! Ohhhhhhh please?!?!”
If only in 30 days it is because because of a temp increase from coronavirus. It should be higher.
