Until yesterday's thread was posted here on Free Republic (my only reliable source for news and informed opinion), I had never even seen the Drudge Report. Last night was my first, last and only visit to that despicable website. The anti-Newt Gingrich lies were reprehensible and revealed a extreme leftist orientation.

I've since done some checking and found that the proprietor, Matt Drudge, is a libertarian. Since he's not a genuine Christian Constitutional Conservative, neither he nor his website are of any value whatsoever to me. Everything worth knowing when it comes to the future of America is right here on Free Republic. Why go anywhere else?

Why would a libertarian be for this

I’ve been with and loved Free Republic and all freepers from the beginning, And I think Drudge too. Matt Drudge was THE the sources of raw, unblemished media intelligence (for some of us) for many years after he broke the Monica Lewinsky story....then everyone would be hanging out on Free Republic and shooting back and forth about all the great stories of that day, many of them having been funneled first through the Drudge Report..
Until I saw this post I thought ..” I’m NOT going crazy, some others are thinking the same way I am”. There have been just TOO many bone headed presentations on the Drudge report for a while now that have gone against my gut instincts.
It seems like Matt has not been as “hands-on” of his site as he used to be. I’ll still go there to check things out, but I’ll be wary and stay alert, because things have seemed “off” a bit lately, not only with the Drudge Report but with other formerly trusted sites as well.
I hope Matt returns to his roots, but commercialism and success may have gotten to him and dulled his quick wit and integrity.
