This man's website can mess up your computer. Matt Drudge 's Drudgereport is known for being inflammatory at times, but now it appears to be downright dangerous. According ot the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Massachusetts, employes were told not to visit the site, due to some malicious code. From a report at Politico: In an e-mail message sent May 4, Paul Harvey, an information-technology official for the Boston office, wrote that security specialists with the U.S. Attorney’s Office at the Department of Justice asked them “to reformat/reimage two computers because the user visited the drudgereport.com site.” “Please avoid the Drudgereport website from the [United ...

I came across a very interesting commentary in the Financial Times newspaper. It seems that Matt Drudge has lost his edge. Everything negative that he has reported about Barack Obama has literally backfired. Doesn't this remind you of the "Teflon President" Ronald Reagan? Well, the article states that it was a shocker in the tradition of Mr Drudge’s scare stories and hyped-up trivia about Democratic candidates in US presidential campaigns, to go with past items about John Edwards’ $400 haircut and John Kerry’s windsurfing. This time, however, it was not merely tendentious but false . I actually wrote about Matt Drudge featuring a picture ... Read Full Story

If you think Perez Hilton has influence on the media elite, think again. Matt Drudge and his famous website drudgereport.com is the political tabloid blog that has been breaking and according to some perhaps even faking, the headline news for years. But regardless, his influence is massive. Take for example the fiasco last week where he broke the news there was internal conflict at Oprah over not featuring Sarah Palin on the show. Oprah was forced to make a worldwide statement denying this rumour. And there have been plenty of other media stories Mr. Drudge was the first to break. If you are that ... Read Full Story

When choosing stories for the Drudge Report that link to his own Breitbart.Com news portal, Matt Drudge's collaborator Andrew Breitbart has been influenced by a secret commercial deal with Reuters to link to its stories since 2005.

The Drudge Report is reporting that: Obama Grants FOXNEWS Interview, DRUDGE has learned; Major Garrett will conduct interview in China next week... As of the writing of this post, no source has been cited and no indication how Matt Drudge has come upon this information. This does raise several questions worth discussing: 1. Why would Obama go with Major Garrett (and not one of the big-boys: Hannity, Beck, O'Reilly)? 2. Why China? 3. Has the...

Drudge Report has long been known for its sensationalism, by writing a headline that has a pinch a truth, and a gallon of speculation. However, being fair, Drudge has broken some important stories and been accurate in doing so.But the fact that he misleads at all is tabloidish, and he does that better than anyone. Here's a perfect example.He took a quote from Michael Moore about his new film 'Capitalism,' and used this photo:Michael Moore...

Why is there so much keening and wailing on the right over the decline of the dollar, a technical issue that virtually every economist agrees is (a) inevitable (b) good for America? Apparently the answer is Matt Drudge, who now writes about the weak dollar about as frequently as he writes about hurricanes during storm season.  Eamon Javers at Politico: Clearly, Matt Drudge has developed a fascination with the declining U.S. dollar.  “He’s...
