Is the drudge report the rights huffington post?
Isn't it funny how embarassing stories about the Right isn't even posted? Agree/disagree? Is this " fair" journalism?



Why isn't Drudge reporting the CIA scandal in Afghanistan?
The Daily Express in the UK broke a story linking Cell Phone Usage to brain tumors, and it has been syndicated by Drudge Report.Why have no other news networks sounded the alarm on this study? I have a hard time understanding how this story can be ignored.Everyone in America uses cell phones, and this is extremely important to knowhttp://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/135974/Mobile-use-is-linked-to-brain-tumours



Why is the story about cell phone usage being linked to brain tumors being syndicated?
If you would listen to republicans and conservatives you would think that the whole country disagrees with Obama's healthcare plan.When in FACT poll after poll says that the country is either split or agrees with Obama.AND poll after poll finds without a doubt that most doctors want a public option.Even the Drudge report (and extremely conservative website) states this.So why are loonies like Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh lying.Look it up, I'm not just making this stuff up.If you disagree give at least 2 or 3 polls that suggest other wise, especially on the doctor opinions.And PLEASE don't just give me your republican talking points, this isn't FOX.to toorie---for one I haven't given you a thumbs up or down, don't put words in my mouth(or in this case thumbs).Plus I asked you to give me polls backing up your claim, and you didn't.Also by stated that you get your info from FOX tells me everything I need to know right there.You're already brainwashed.I at least will admit that MSNBC is a biased left-wing news channel, will you admit that FOX is a biased right-wing news channel? Probably not because you're so blinded by Glenn Becks mesmerizing smile huh?



Why Do Most Doctor's Actually Support a Public Option?
Politico is implying that Matt Drudge, of the Drudge Report fame, is responsible for the declining value of the US Dollar, since he provides links to stories that talk about this matter.Is that not one of the most ridiculous things you've heard lately? Here is the link to the story: http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1009/28530.htmlSorry I was going to post the link to it when I posted the question, but it slipped my mind.



Do you think Politico was right for blaming the declining value of the US Dollar on Matt Drudge?
The website " The Drudge Report" has a huge photo of Obama reading to small school children with the headline " HIGH TIMES: OBAMA TO ISSUE NEW MARIJUANA POLICY" Is this fair and balanced news? Isn't the implication here that Obama is going to smoke weed with little kids.Is this fair news? http://www.drudgereport.com/I guess it IS silly for the administration to be annoyed.Its CLEARLY so unbiased.Go and look.And please, they aren't some randomly generated headlines, go and look.Get your heads out of your butts.Take responsibility for once people...enough excuses.



IS the Drudge Report fair and balanced like Fox News?
Who's Partisan Now? - The Press as Paladin of a PresidencyBy Jeffrey T.KuhnerPresident Obama has declared political war on the Fox News Channel.He refuses to appear on Fox News - at least for the rest of this year - and has unleashed his administration's attack dogs.The goal is to vilify the network's hard-won reputation." What I think is fair to say about Fox - and certainly it's the way we view it - is that it really is more a wing of the Republican Party," said Anita Dunn, White House communications director, on CNN." They take their talking points, put them on the air; take their opposition research, put them on the air.And that's fine.But let's not pretend they're a news network the way CNN is." Ms.Dunn's comments are a blatant attempt by the White House to delegitimize and undermine Fox News' journalistic credibility.The administration is seeking to portray the network as a media arm of the Republican Party.This is false.It has repeatedly highlighted Republican Party scandals - former Rep.Mark Foley of Florida, lobbyist Jack Abramoff, South Carolina Gov.Mark Sanford - as well as the wasteful spending and runaway deficits that took place under President George W.Bush.When the war in Iraq was going badly prior to the 2007 troop surge, Fox News did not shy away from covering negative stories on the ground.Contrary to its slogan, however, Fox News is not " fair and balanced." It is clearly a center-right network, where conservative commentators outnumber liberal and centrist ones.Moreover, Fox's news operation also slants conservative not so much in its coverage, but in the choice of topics: fiscal irresponsibility, the expansion of big government, an imperial judiciary, the war on terrorism, radical Islam, crime, teenage out-of-wedlock pregnancy, and the culture wars.Many of these issues are downplayed or ignored by its rivals.In other words, Fox has filled an ideological vacuum left by the likes of CNN and MSNBC.The reason its ratings are soaring while its competitors are declining is that Fox consciously - even proudly - caters to God-fearing, gun-toting, red-state viewers.It speaks to the populist, patriotic and conservative values embodied by Middle America - principles that have been consistently mocked by media elites.Fox is despised by the Obama administration and its leftist media allies in part because of its success and profitability.Moreover, Fox is feared because its growing power stands as an indictment against the desiccated liberal establishment.For decades, the Washington press corps has presented itself as the guardian of political order and institutional stability.They are the real " news experts" whose experience and rational judgment are necessary to preserve " fairness" and " objectivity." The rise of Fox News and the New Media - Internet news sites, such as the Drudge Report, World Net Daily and Newsmax, along with talk radio - has ripped away that shallow, smug and self-satisfied journalistic veneer.The emergence of Fox News is a sign many Americans no longer trust the political and media class.It is part of a larger populist revolt that is slowly reshaping our society.The American people crave government accountability and political transparency.Moreover, many in the heartland rightly sense that something has gone terribly wrong.They are slowly losing their country to globalist progressives who no longer share any attachment to traditional America.For Ms.Dunn and the White House, Fox News' real transgression is not its purported links to the Republicans.Rather, it has given expression to this populist-patriotic resurgence by covering the " tea party" protests and the heated town-hall meetings on Obamacare, as well as exposing the neo-Marxist radicalism of former green jobs czar, Van Jones, and the rampant corruption at ACORN (the activist Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now).Mr.Obama occupies the White House in large part because of a sycophantic, fawning press corps.They carried him all the way to power.During the campaign, MSNBC's Chris Matthews even declared that Mr.Obama's speech " sent shivers up my leg." Mr.Matthews' statement captured the establishment media's incestuous relationship with the president.It has abrogated its sacred duty to be critical and skeptical of political leaders - regardless of party affiliation.It is only natural for Ms.Dunn to claim that, as opposed to Fox, CNN is a genuine news network.Mr.Obama's team is accustomed to soft media treatment.In fact, they expect it.And it is what they have received from CNN - even to the point of appearing ridiculous.CNN's Wolf Blitzer - I could not make this up - did a " fact check" to defend the president's policies from a " Saturday Night Live" skit.This is how desperate CNN has become to prop up Mr.Obama's dwindling poll numbers.For decades, The Washington Post, the New York Times, CNN, CBS News, ABracism is unbecoming has no way to get to her says,"" the boy"? Your racism is showing, hon.And FOX News is an arm of the Republican Party, and does not provide news.Instead, they provide opinion and propaganda." Someone must pay you to be stupid.

Who do you think is right? All media slobbering over 0bama or FoxNews being fair and balanced?
The Drudge report announces that Russia claims that they reserve the right to preemptive nuclear missile strikes against America! Obama gives Russia the grand tour of all of America's top secrete nuclear missile sights! Sorry for some of the spelling, I had to fit the whole question in.



Why are liberals so concerned with globalwarming when Obama's antiAmerican policies will cause a nucularwinter?
Nobel Peace Prize Winner? October 10, 2009 Barack Obama's Peace Prize Starts a FightCatherine Philp, Diplomatic Correspondent Drudge ReportGasps echoed through the Nobel Hall in Oslo yesterday as Barack Obama was unveiled as the winner of the 2009 Peace Prize, sparking a global outpouring of incredulity and praise in unequal measure.Mr Obama was sound asleep in the White House when the Norwegian Nobel Committee made the shock announcement.It said that he was being honoured for his “extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and co-operation between peoples”.In a clear swipe at his predecessor, George W.Bush, the committee praised the “change in the international climate” that the President had brought, along with his cherished goal of ridding the world of nuclear weapons.“Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world's attention and given its people hope for a better future,” it added.International reaction ranged from delight to disbelief.The former winners Kofi Annan and Desmond Tutu voiced praise, the latter lauding the Nobel Committee’s “surprising but imaginative choice”.But Lech Walesa, the dissident turned Polish President, who won the Peace Prize in 1983, spoke for many, declaring: “So soon? Too early.He has no contribution so far.” Mr Obama’s domestic critics leapt on the award as evidence of foreigners fawning over an untested “celebrity” leader.Rush Limbaugh, the US right-wing commentator, said: “This fully exposes the illusion that is Barack Obama." Speaking later, Mr Obama said that he was “surprised and deeply humbled” by the unexpected decision and announced that he would donate the £880,000 prize, due to be awarded in December, to charity.“Let me be clear.I do not view it as recognition of my own accomplishments but rather as an affirmation of American leadership on behalf of aspirations held by people in all nations," he said.The Nobel Peace Prize is a notoriously difficult award to predict, but yesterday's decision was clearly a political choice, with three of the past six peace awards going to Bush adversaries.In 2002 the prize went to Jimmy Carter as an explicit rejection of the Bush presidency in the build-up to the Iraq war.In 2005 Mohamed ElBaradei, the UN atomic agency chief who had clashed with Washington over the search for weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, was honoured.In 2007 Al Gore received the prize for his warnings on climate change, denounced by President Bush as a liberal myth.The award is also an example of what Nobel scholars call the growing aspirational trend of Nobel committees over the past three decades, by which awards are given not for what has been achieved but in support of the cause being fought for.Thorbjørn Jagland, the committee chairman, made clear that this year’s prize fell in that category.“If you look at the history of the Peace Prize, we have on many occasions given it to try to enhance what many personalities were trying to do,” he said.“It could be too late to respond three years from now.” But Bobby Muller, who won the Nobel Prize as co-founder of the International Campaign to Ban Landmines, told The Times: " I don't have the highest regard for the thinking or process of the Nobel committee.Maybe Norway should give it to Sweden so they can more properly handle the Peace Prize along with all the other Nobel prizes." http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/article6868905.ece



How can it be that not everyone is slobbering over themselves with THE DEAR ONE's selection as this year's?
I read searching the internet this morning that asian central banks had to buy large amounts of us dollars during the night last night to hold up the dollar.No reports of this on any of the finance networks, cnbs, fox business, nothing.....Now this evening it is the front page of drudge, Our government is trying to lie to us about the dollar.As long as we continue to be pre-occupied with things such as this dem-repub argument, we won't see what is hapening.What does everyone think about this?
