Matt Drudge will probably go down in history as the Father of Internet Journalism after he beat TV news out of the Monica Lewinsky-President Clinton scandal (for more on that scandal, search on Zimbio). Creator of the Drudge Report ( www.drudgereport.com), Mr. Drudge started out as a Hollywood gossip monger and rose to become a celebrity millionaire.
This site features the latest news and information about the man, the Report, the scandals, the enemies and any other Drudgery you care to add.

As President Obama brokered a last-minute deal with China, India, and other nations to jointly fight global warming, American conservatives continued their assault on reason when it comes to climate science. All through the week, right-wingers from Rush Limbaugh to Fox News highlighted the fact that Copenhagen, the site of the international climate negotiations, received [...]

Headline Poet Laureate of America: So subtle as to be almost unnoticed, Matt Drudge has become one of our leading headline-stack poets. Working in blank verse to obscure the fact of the deep wellsprings of poetry in his soul, Drudge cannot completely hide his mastery of the headline stack. This morning's sestet demonstrates how poetry can still used in the cause of the people.
Robert Frost sit down. It's Pulitzer time.

Oh hey look, the Drudge Report’s front page is trumpeting the news that Cuba’s foreign minister had some harsh words for President Obama over the Copenhagen climate conference. “Cuban official says Obama lied in Copenhagen... 'Imperial, arrogant'...” This is weird on a couple of levels. First, Drudge appears to be bandwagoning on the Castro administration’s condemnation of Obama—anyone’s criticism will do, I suppose, even though Drudge would...

Did Matt Drudge just revere-jujitsu a Rupert Murdoch rumour into the news? Australian website Crikey reported that Murdoch split with his wife Wendi Deng. No one, anywhere, picked it up, because Murdoch runs half the gossip industry. But here’s Matt! (more…)

- Drudge: Those Rupert Murdoch Rumors Are Not True... (gawker.com)
Hilarious. Yesterday the Drudge Report linked to Tim Lambert’s Deltoid blog at ScienceBlogs — because Drudge mistakenly thought that Lambert’s post debunking the New Zealand Climate Science Coalition’s dishonesty was actually supporting them.
As soon as Drudge realized Deltoid wasn’t a climate denial site, he removed the link. (Just in case you think the Drudge Report isn’t promoting an agenda.)
But not before Lambert’s blog was swamped with...

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...

I don't know if Drudge was intentionally doing this (he probably was), but here are two items that appeared on the Drudge Report this evening:Copenhagen climate summit: 1,200 limos, 140 private planes and caviar wedgesandChristmas trees banned for climate summitNow admittedly, the ban on Christmas trees has more to do with political correctness than with the climate impact of the trees. But just imagine the dichotomy, on a day when the Obama...

The Wall Street Journal, Fox News anchors, conservative Web news purveyor Matt Drudge, and conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh promulgate a discredited claim by health care lobbyist Betsy McCaughey that the economic recovery bill pending in Congress includes a provision that would have the government "essentially dictate treatments" for sick Americans. McCaughey wrote a commentary for Bloomberg News on February 9 that makes the claim...

The right-wing tsk tsk tskers are at it again. This time it is a deep bow of respect President Barack Obama offered when greeting Japanese emperor Akihito this weekend in Tokyo.
That bastion of conservatism, The Drudge Report, signaled its disgust by shouting in 42-pt. boldface headlines “How Low Can He Get?”
And, get this. Drudge uses [...]

The Drudge Report suggested that global warming is "junk science," by linking to a Washington Times editorial that falsely claims a series of emails that were reportedly stolen from the UK's Climate Research Unit [CRU] show that global warming is an "unproven theory." In fact, the validity of climate science is not hinged on the contents of these emails, some of which conservative media have taken out of context; reports from the...

What do all these people have in common? Mark Levin Sean Hannity Tom Sullivan Matt Drudge Roger Hedgecock Glenn Beck Answer: They've all had their careers assisted by Rush Limbaugh.

Forget Tinky-Winky, or whatever his name was. Meet Oscar the Grouch.
A conservative blogger at Andrew Breitbart's "Big Hollywood" website -- the onetime right-hand man for conservative maven Matt Drudge -- is now targeting Sesame Street for its "unfair" portrayal of Fox News as "trashy news show."
Evidently, Oscar the Grouch's "GNN" is not trashy enough. (Oscar, [...]
