Drudge has become old and slow! (Vanity)
self

Posted on 12/01/2017 10:07:51 PM PST by EliRoom8

Drudge is not staying up to date on the Flynn news, Flake's DACA claim, or the tax vote.! Where is there any mention of the huge drop in the markets after the Ross announcement? I've loved him for years, but his site is becoming more and more yesterday's news and hardly worth a visit. Drudge, you're sleeping too much and getting old. Huge thanks for your past diligence and work, but It's now time to pass the baton to those who will restore the energy of the Drudge Report and make it the life it once was. Until then, FreeRepublic and Breitbart are the places to get the latest "buzz." The posters at FR do a magnificent job of combing the Internet and live wires.

He’s not slow. He does things intentionally.

Matt, time to sell the Drudge Report franchise to the WaPo or google.

I haven’t been there for three months. Events on the ground are moving faster than Drudge is able to keep up with.

I didn’t mean that I don’t understand how websites make money.

What I meant was that I can’t understand how a boring website gets views.

Liberty Daily is not bad, but I agree with some of your complaints. I visit there a few times per week.

But for my money there is no better Drudge alternative than Citizen Free Press.

https://www.citizenfreepress.com/

They update stories 16-18 hours per day, and they have at least 15 videos every day in addition to about 60-70 new links. They do a fantastic job.

Dropped Drudge about a year ago.

Liberty Daily.

The ads drive you nuts but they’ve always got their finger in the left’s eye.

It’s Drudge for us.

‘Liberty Daily is too quick to accuse anybody they don’t like of being a ‘Communist’.
I haven’t seen that degree of Red Baiting since the Cold War days. There is a tacky, hysterical feel to the site.’

Have to admit it’s pretty entertaining.

Excellent looking News congregation website. Will see if it holds up for content and substance as time goes by.

I stopped visiting Drudge a couple of years ago when I noticed he seemed to be slacking off the updates.

If you want to watch a real freak show in The Liberty Daily, turn off your ad blockers. You will get 30 or so ads. Sometimes, some of them are repeated two, three, or four times on the page.

I know it takes income to run a website, but when your advertisers (Revcontent, Feed Network. Outbrain, and Taboola) run sleaze ball fake-news 'Weird' ads, it makes me wonder about the people running it. They even have ads that give hope that serious medical conditions can be cured by 'this simple trick.' That is not right.

I got all of these today:

The last time I went to Drug=dge he had dropped the FR link, so screw him.

All you Drudge heads go over there and gum up his html and let FR be. Bitch and moan to him to make his site better or threaten to leave...

I had to quit Liberty Daily - couldn’t stand the clickbait crap plastered across the site. Someone on FR suggested ‘whatfinger.com’ & I have been pretty happy there.

Liberty Daily News is my go to site. Drudge won’t even let me read the page before reloading.

Those ads should be under “SnakeOil.Com”.
Taboola is one of the worst offenders, constantly trying to give me porn pop-ups, even when I say I don’t want it. I request ‘family friendly’ settings. Besides, that’s not why I look at the news.

I think when they somehow deduce that you’re male, they jump to the conclusion that you ‘obviously’ have an insatiable appetite for pornography. Not true, I’m not 13 years old anymore. Once you open those floodgates, it’s likely to never end.

Citizen Free Press is a great site. It updates more than any of the others. I’ve visited them all.

I don’t know exactly when I stopped my habitual Drudge viewing, but I don’t go more than once a month, if that. There have been some big and important stories he’s had nothing about and I ended up at Twitter.

Twitter has plenty of its own problems, but if there’s something going on I can type in a keyword and immediately find info and go from there.

Best part- I don’t have a Twitter account!

Drudge seems....different now. Stale and headed left.
