The king of headline media. Headlines done right, from the full spectrum of the politisphere: tabloid, right, left, doom, absurd, etc.
What has happened toi this site? It used to be a staple but now it's just anothjer LW mouthpiece like all the rest. Hope the 30 pieces of silver were worth it.
Total biased garbage. They attack Trump daily for months at a time, with big titles right in your face.
I will never click on the Drudge Report again; very bad taste...thought they were neutral grounds. Total Trash! Good bye!
Matt Drudge went from a fairly non biased reporter to nothing more than a sensational tabloid reporter. I can get more accurate information using National Examiner, National Enquirer, Babylon Bee, or The Onion. Stop your hate speech on conservatives Drudge and simple report the news.

It Looks like Drudge has joined all these Chinese web advertisers and nothing works anymore Very scary as I enjoyed Drudge and Rush for the truth but it is clear Matt has no interest in keeping it real as he did years ago. What a shame so depressing I won't log on to that Chinese Communist infected Drudge Report ever again
Literally the same headlines as CNN now. Let that sink in. Full of disgusting toxic clickbait lies destroying our country. Not sure how Drudge lives with himself
In an era dominated by the 24-hour news cycle and the rise of digital media, the Drudge Report was once a beacon of alternative news and independent journalism. However, as time has passed, it is disheartening to witness the steady decline of this once-reliable source. What was once a platform known for breaking stories and presenting diverse perspectives has devolved into a shameless clickbait machine that prioritizes ad revenue and subscriptions over the pursuit of truth. This critique aims to shed light on the disconcerting state of the Drudge Report and its detrimental impact on the integrity of news consumption.
The Advent of Clickbait:
Gone are the days when the Drudge Report was synonymous with credible news aggregation. Instead, it has succumbed to the lure of clickbait, employing sensationalist headlines designed solely to generate web traffic. Stories are carefully crafted to provoke curiosity and appeal to the lowest common denominator, often resorting to half-truths or outright falsehoods. With a barrage of flashy ads competing for attention on the site, it becomes evident that the Drudge Report is more concerned with maximizing profits than providing genuine news coverage.
Fake News and Misinformation:
One of the most alarming aspects of the Drudge Report's decline is its complicity in spreading fake news and misinformation. The site seems to have abandoned any commitment to journalistic integrity, opting instead for outrageous claims and conspiracy theories that have been debunked by reputable sources. By disseminating false information, the Drudge Report undermines the public's trust in journalism as a whole and contributes to the erosion of factual discourse. This reckless approach prioritizes sensationalism over truth-seeking and perpetuates the dangerous polarization of society.
Subscription Model: Paying for Deception
A recent development that exemplifies the Drudge Report's questionable ethics is the introduction of a subscription-based model. While subscriptions can be a legitimate means of supporting journalism, the Drudge Report's approach is deeply problematic. By offering access to exclusive content based on a single headline story, the site manipulates readers into paying for a service that is built upon a foundation of clickbait and dubious reporting. This tactic not only exploits readers' curiosity but also reinforces the cycle of misinformation by encouraging a reliance on sensational headlines.
The Death of Diverse Perspectives:
Once hailed for its ability to present stories from a range of ideological standpoints, the Drudge Report now predominantly caters to a specific narrative. In its quest for maximum engagement and revenue, the site has abandoned the principles of impartiality and fair reporting. Rather than fostering informed debates and intellectual discourse, the Drudge Report has become an echo chamber that reinforces pre-existing biases and stokes division among its readers. This shift undermines the core values of journalism and denies readers the opportunity to engage with differing opinions.
Conclusion:
The Drudge Report's transformation from a credible news aggregator to a purveyor of clickbait and sensationalism is a disheartening testament to the state of modern media. By prioritizing ad revenue and subscriptions over journalistic integrity, the site perpetuates the spread of fake news, misinformation, and ideological polarization. As consumers of news, it is crucial to recognize the decline of platforms like the Drudge Report and actively seek out reliable and diverse sources that prioritize truth, accuracy, and the free exchange of ideas. The responsibility lies with us to demand better, for the sake of a well-informed society.
This online publication is very left leaning and its stories have no real content. Everything is headline and superficial. It is fair for amusement but a very poor source for factual news. The obvious nature of its anti-Trump and anti-Republican message is seen all day long.
The only redeeming thing is the content with a few interesting stories about unusual happenings.
If you rely on this for news it isn't working.
I've tuned into DRUDGE since it's beginning days. No more. I consider it to be the national enquire of politics and can no longer take it seriously. I feel it is no longer news worthy and more divisive than ever. If one reads Drudge you would think the world has come to an end. Today's headline: IT's WAR! (Iran), seriously?
So these idiots lied about Tx border patrol showing a picture of one on horseback claiming he was whipping illegal migrants. I have never seen the dishonest intentional framing of stories in my life. Screw you Drudge Report.
The Drudge Report formerly was a conservative daily filled with news the major news outlets would not print. For some reason, The Drudge Report changed into a left wing, hate Trump new site sometime in p mid year 2019. Drudge is now no more than another MSNBC, CNN or Politico website spouting virulent hatred of everything Trump, conservative points of view or love of country. You can count on Matt Drudge to troll any article from across the left wing propaganda spectrum and post it to his website. The man is an utter disgrace and should be shunned as a hater of American life, democracy and decency.
This website was my go to place for "real" news for probably 20 years and now 90% of their news is propaganda or false information. The National Enquirer is more accurate. Matt needs to hang it up and probably sold out for some money which ruined his reputation forever in my book and many I know. Don't just take my word for it, read some stories, screenshot it and fact check it a week or two later. Deuce's!
Been reading Drudge for years. They have now become an outlet for fear stories and sensationalism, all while leaning further and further left. Sad to say, Im done with the Drudge Report. There is more accurate news in the check out line tabloids at the grocery store...
Drudge used to show truth. Hes obviously been compromised in some way. Im done as many others will go to the bongino report now in 2020
This guy isn't worth the air he breathes, built his website as a bold, new, conservative format. Then after padding his wallet decides to attack the people that built his site. Will die a slow death, hope is it goes really sloooooow and really painful.
I used to use the Drudge Report for Many Many years now. But! Disgusting! Drudge used to report news. No more, the last few months all he's doing is promoting the Liberal agenda, All see it Matt! He became a Liberal puppet... its time for a new real news source... I hope we can still find one.
I will not use Drudge Report and I hope millions of American patriots will do the same.
I used to get a lot of my news here but now its just not the same.
Drudge report has now become what it fought against fake news.
Drudge report is now bias I loved this site because it had no bias views this is no longer the factor.
I dunno what happened to Matt Drudge but it is clear to everyone that he has sold out.
Drudge has turned into a "click-bait" site. Click on a link and you usually get "fake news." We are not wasting our time anymore with this sell-out.
Drudge report post nothing but left wing propaganda now! F. ck you! I will not b3 back! I hate u lying left wing pieces of filth Infiltrators!
Matt sold the site along with his silence to a liberal leaning investment group in January 2019 and no longer has anything to do with it.
How could anyone read anything you have to say after Trump wins? You put out the impression Biden has it locked in to be the next President of the U.S. You are the problem with social media aka fake news. If you know so much then why didn't I see you fighting in Iraq beside me?
Drudge Report, once a paragon of conservative reportage, has thrown in with the left and now
Attacks Republicans at will including our duly elected 45th President. The line-up
Of news items linked on the daily menu should be enough to convince the skeptical
Reader that Matt Drudge is lately more interested in sensation that accurate and even-
Handed journalism. Even the past radio days of the eternal optimist Gabriel Heatter could
Not compare with the abject negativism Matt Drudge portrays in the vitriol reserved for
Trump by reciting the worse of the worse in the Wuhan virus epidemic.
It's been nice knowing ya, Matt.

Drudge used to be the go to site to get a decent conservative take on news and events. Now it is among the likes of The National Enquirer. The problem is the at least The Enquirer has entertainment value. If you want to read Drudge go ahead but be warned it will be difficult to rid yourself of stepped in dog $#*! smell after you finish.
I remember hearing Glenn Beck a few years ago call Matt Drudge a scumbag. Turns out he was absolutely right. He has shown his true liberal colors and after 20 years and 1000's of clicks am done with Drudge.
Drudge used to be my homepage. I would get links to articles that the mainstream media wouldn't give the light of day to. I noticed over a very short period of time that it has turned into a page offering links to every article of anti Trump and anti conservative content.
If that's the direction you want to go, fine. But at least offer up some balance otherwise I can't take it seriously. It's become a site filled with doom and gloom promoted by the likes of MSNBC and CNN.
Matt Drudge seems to have turned the page into a "clickbait" site against Trump rather than a reliable news site. Shame on you Matt. Not even Fox has shifted this far off base.
