Drudge Report
Drudge Report is a USA web site covering National News.
The Drudge Report is a web site providing links to breaking news stories, selected by site owner Matt Drudge. Known for his conservative views and editorial choices, Drudge sometimes authors brief news stories himself based on tips. The Drudge Report was founded in 1994 as a weekly gossip column delivered via email to subscribers who paid $10 per year. Drudge created the web site in 1997, and gained national attention in 1998 as the first source to break the Monica Lewinsky scandal (after Newsweek magazine decided not to publish the story). The Drudge Report web site includes links to the home pages of major news media outlets, bloggers and editorial writers. Matt Drudge runs the web site from his home in Miami Beach, Florida.
This web site is owned by Matt Drudge.
