Do you have any information on the sale? My brother in law, a rare Hispanic conservative, was arguing that Google didn’t buy the Drudge site.
Drudge is so bad that even a quick look will demoralize you and ruin your outlook for the day. Web traffic reports show a 10% drop in visits to Drudge for the month of September - good trend! Hope Drudge goes to zero.
Here are 6 good alternatives that will make you forget Drudge - in addition to developing some mastery of Twitter, which is absolutely a superior near real-time news service:
https://thelibertydaily.com/
https://www.citizenfreepress.com/
https://rantingly.com/
http://badblue.bitnamiapp.com
https://www.politipage.us/

The way to make to Twitter work for you is to follow proxies for your thinking and values - this will train your feed to deliver the voices you value.

Rush has it showing this morning.
I quit Drudge also about the time he didn’t do President Trump justice!
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh............. Yahoo??
I can forgive early skeptics who’ve come around based on his record of conservative achievement. Sounds like you can too. But, to abandon Trump as he’s delivering on policies that supposed conservatives have espoused for for years is simply inexcusable.
Among his many achievements, exposing the grifters and frauds whom we once thought were our allies may be his most enduring.
I think this info is wrong.
Drudge still owns Drudge Report. He hired a new advertising firm to get ads. The firm is owned by a woman whose husband is a google executive. He has no part in her business.
The rumors that google owns drudge is inaccurate.
Please post any news item to the contrary.
All very true.
” google owns Drudge; he sold it about a year ago.”
That explains the Drudge about face. In in RINO, Drudge is letterally DINO.
Sorry lots of ads
This is one source

Thanks for the Limbaugh-Drudge update. Drudge Report gets me ill, mainly links to the liberal media. Rush hasn’t figured it out yet?
It is my understanding that Drudge sold the majority of his site to Google sometime back which explains what has happened at that site. Google now controls the Drudge Report and it’s content.
Ditto
Thanks for the info, but the new ad agency mentioned in the IWB story is the same woman’s I spoke of. It is not owned by google.
Investment watch blog is a vile clickbait site that steals other peoples content and puts their name on it. I think FR finally banned them. A clown named davikkm never posted anything but the IWB stories.
Is there any other news source available?
I hear that around here all the time, but I’ve yet to see any official confirmation of this.
Drudge has definitely gone to the dark side for quite some time now.
I just found this: https://www.investmentwatchblog.com/drudge-sold-out-to-big-tech/
Oh - he says that source isnt good enough,
so he rejects the info that a leftist agency bought Drudge’s father’s website and that Matt Drudge switching to left wing Granite Cubed for marketing was part of the deal
And that the timing ties into the changes on Drudges website
Not doing anymore research for him, may he think it is all just coincidental
There is no confirmation because it did not happen. Drudge still owns Drudge Report.
All he did was change advertising agency. Google has nothing to do with Drudge Report.
Drudge has become left wing for his own reasons.
You will notice all the he sold the site reports never cite a business story, an it would be big news. Because it didn’t happen.
