Drudge Report may get a ton of page views. But at what price? And guess how? By linking a full panoply of right-winger and political numbnut (see WaPost sold) stories all the time, coupled with typically misleading propaganda headlines, and then incessantly drawing in a bunch of loony leftist 20 percenters who are constantly "monitoring" the same sick situation! Meantime Politico masquerades as an objective source on the same dreary, boring slate of stories but puts its own left-leaning slant on them.
Both websites bore the living hell out of me with the overwhelming majority of their content. Only in Washington DC, and only within the American political establishment (tossing in some tea party lackeys and mama's basement leftist 20 percenters just to round out this demented equation), could two such websites be so successful due to little more than the small sliver partisan and wonk audiences that prop them up.
For the record, most of us (whether Independent or whether affiliated with the awful democrat party or gop-er party) here in middle America could not give a Georgia shithouse about the Washington Post being sold to some Amazon.com lout. But on the most highly viewed political websites amongst "beltway" leftists and right-wingers in Washington DC (such as Drudge Report and Politico), the WaPost story was the biggest story in the world (!!!) on Monday and Tuesday -- sitting completely atop those sites both days. Fools.
I swear, without my own (this) website, the UK Daily Mail, and a few other sporadic sites to entertain me, I would have little reason to even have an Internet -- sort of how it was with old Missouri head football coach Larry Smith, sans the white hair and short stature. Maybe the old dead coacher was on to something there.
