    The Drudge show hits IMPEACHMENT

    It is great to see Matt Drudge showcase himself again on his own website..

    There is absolutely no doubt that the Drudge Report changed the world, started a media revolution.. and for better or worse paved the way for what we are dealing with today…

    Drudge showed the media that a glamor job on a network wasn’t what mattered..

    Just a modem and a web space. It all happened in the murky mid-90s when his gossip column reached 300,000 or so folks–a major achievement for that time! Even AOL had struggles Drudge never did.

    And that magic moment. The time he was given a lead that no one else would bite one: An intern sex scandal in the White House that would change history, journalism, and the basic fabric of our nation…

    And now Drudge is touting his presence in the Monica Lewinsky drama IMPEACHMENT..

    DRUDGE HIMSELF MARKED THE OCCASION WITH A SERIES OF NEWS LINKS AND A NOSTALGIC IMAGE OF HIMSELF ON HIS SITE, THE DRUDGE REPORT..

    Drudge linked a story by Adrienne Gafney with a headline “Memories How Drudge Changed it All” ..

    She wrote,

    Drudge, and his soon to be famous site Drudge Report, achieved the impossible in 1998 and stunned the world when he broke the news about President Clinton’s affair with an intern named Monica Lewinsky—a relationship that’s at the center of the new series, airing now on FX.

    There is a lot more about his influence, his role … all of it.

    When the HORROR REPORT first began back in the early days if the 21st century, we homaged Drudge by stealing his look and design.

    Some have dismissed his site and his role in history. Other realized immediately then and still today how much of a role has had in just about every historical event since the mid 1990s….

  • Is Matt Drudge listening to Art Bell?

    Is Matt Drudge listening to Art Bell?

    I think so..
    While Matt Drudge didn’t link news on the much reach Drudge Report about Art Bell’s return to radio–he did in 2013 with the Sirius deal–a look at headlines being posted on the site makes one wonder if he’s been listening..
    Just today.. Asteroids…blue moon…aliens and the Vatcian.. Cancer from cell phones… Exorcisms airing on live TV and being filmed I parks … And humans evolving a new way of walking.
    While Drudge focused mainly on politics over the course of career, oddities and strangeness has been intertwined.. 
    I have it on good source that Drudge is a Bell fan. Even when he hosted his own Sunday show in the early part of this century, he crack wisely about Bell taking over the night after him.. 
    A peek at Drudge headlines makes me conclude that MIDNIGHT IN THR DESERT may be forcing him to think about other worldly things that matter often more than political intrigue.
    Such as Donald Trump. 
    If you’re listening Drudge, you’re joining a big group of Midnight fans that Bell is developing. 
    Keep on linking the weird. We will keep reading.
