Matt Drudge: Media propping up ‘old and sick’ Hillary
Drudge also alluded to his “long history” with the Clintons, referencing his coverage of the 1990s Monica Lewinsky scandal.
They’re ugly; they play dirty.
“I’ve never met Piers Morgan but I do believe that Tweet that day led to that, which ended up being the most dramatic moment on CNN in a generation”, said Drudge, adding, “That’s why they need to hire people away from 6th avenue just to look at the scene”.
The founder of Drudge Report also gave a window into his philosophy on digital media and the Internet, where he’s reigned supreme for over a decade. Getting “Drudged” – that is, having your story linked to by Drudge Report – remains one of the most coveted goals for media organizations seeking web traffic. Blumenthal’s lawsuit was settled in 2001 with a judge ordering him to pay Drudge’s travel costs.
Drudge warned that social media giants like Twitter and Facebook were swallowing up content and strangling the organic growth of independent Internet news platforms. A civil action. These people-and they didn’t have the NSA then…Hillary Clinton with the NSA? During the exchange, he issued a challenge to Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, who have called for greater gun control measures in the wake of the Oregon campus shooting incident last week. “Good luck if you dissent”, Drudge said. “(Edward) Snowden, I’ll switch places with you”. “You can come over here and rot in hell, cuz that’s what it’s gonna be”.
In another segment of the interview, Drudge asserted that the media is covering up news that Clinton has had affairs.
He continued, questioning “why aren’t we seeing Hillary’s lovers?” and “where’s the cover-up on this?” Before this country is so completely altered and we’re left with Hillary’s brain in the Oval Office in a jar. Drudge asked. Rumors have floated around for years that the former secretary of state has also had affairs.
