I have almost completely wiped out going to him. Every now and then I do just out of boredom/impulsive habit... I will do better.

4. Amen!
There are so many quality progressive sites that are begging for traffic. Drudge is swill.

I review my site-stats every night and ask myself: "Why the @#$% does Drudge get more hits than me? WHY GOD WHY?!! Is there no justice?"

Go to www.whiterosesociety.com or www.radioenigma.com . The have so much more to offer.

9. Does anyone else go to News America Now?
http://www.newsamericanow.com/

It almost strikes me as the "Anti-Drudge" with a more progressive slant (or so it appears, at least).

I just can't stand Drudge either way - to call him a journalist (or anything but a hack) is laughable.

5. Amen
If you really feel the need to read his headlines,
go to the freetards site instead: http://www.freerepublic.com/
they post all his crap there, and you'll cost them the bandwidth.

13. Did he used to be progressive?
I got the idea at one time that was a progressive site.

Anyway, I haven't visited the site in years and don't plan to.

17. I've never been to the Sludge site,
never will; never been to FR; never will. If I were to go to either site, it would make me feel so filthy that I'd never feel clean again.

18. My thoughts exactly
Although I used to click on those damn tinyurls people post sometimes and once I ended up at FR. Now I never click tinyurls or embedded links at DU - though many can't resist them...

No extra clicks for FR, no increased views for Drudge. Never ever.
