DRUDGE Report

I know that Drudge sold the site to liberals a few years ago. I don’t hate him for doing that by the way - he banked and I don’t blame him
Anyways, I check that site from time to time along with PP and Rantingly.
It appears to me that whoever is now running DRUDGE is somewhat kind of independent.
I see that site is now actually posting some damaging shite for liberals. It’s now about 40% Dem bad news and 60% GOP bad news. Compared to 100% bad news for GOP like it has been since Drudge sold it.
I’ll be honest with you, it is actually quite refreshing to have a website that posts shite about each party instead of 100% all in for one side.
I really wish that all media would be like this. It would be good for the country and would be fair and balanced (which by the way FOX News stopped using that slogan for sometime now)

So, a center-leftist site then?

If that’s what you want to call it. I think it’s a step in the right (no pun) direction instead of 24/7 100% bashing Tump/GOP

Controlled opposition, and I don't think it's been verified that he sold it, just maybe getting his bread buttered (like Soros buying up conservative, Spanish-speaking radio stations) and having his anti-Trump temper tantrums, years later, after being supposedly snubbed by Trump a la Mitt Romney.

I, like most normal people just want the truth. I haven't been there in a while, but I will check it out.
If the D's screw up, let us know. If the R's screw up, let us know. Pretty simple but lacking so much in Legacy Media today.

Yep. He's destroyed it himself:
quote:
In October 2019, the Drudge Report began linking to articles which were increasingly critical of Trump, reportedly the result of Drudge himself becoming "exasperated" by the president.[65] This coincided with a near 30% decrease in traffic metrics for the Drudge website in the last months of 2019—from a 90 day-ago ranking of #637 in global internet engagement as of July to #844 in December.[66] The site's readership briefly rebounded in March 2020 as the COVID-19 pandemic escalated, but continued to decline to new record lows as the year went on.[67]
After a Comscore data report showing a year over year decline of 38 percent from August 2019 to August 2020, President Trump tweeted, "Such an honor! Drudge is down 40% plus since he became Fake News. Most importantly, he's bleeding profusely, and is no longer "hot". But others are! Lost ALL Trumpers."[68]

They are doing that to attract conservatives but will tend to give "neutral" news more slanted to the pedocrat side of things the closer we get to the elections.
