Drudge Report (Official)

I can see the entire Drudge page on the browser version and quickly scan the whole page and zoom in to show as little or as much as my heart desires. The APP, however, pre-selects a font size that you cannot adjust, feeds you headlines that (because of the font size) run into extra line spacing reducing total headlines available. It’s a very inefficient way to view the news, like being fed M&M’s by the piece when what I want is a handful. And not having that option is not preferable to the browser. It’s an issue if time, space, control, and efficiency. Just my take. I’d use it if they could give me controls over all of that. The only benefit I see is getting alerts, but then again, just who decides it’s worthwhile or rises to the level of sending a notice to my phone makes it all questionable.

The drudge I knew to be so great in its objective collecting of real news stories, has fallen so far I’m afraid we will never see the drudge we knew so well. This site has now become a salad bowl of fear-mongering and politically-skewed selections from the mainstream table. Why just look at CNN and MSNBC and others of the same ilk when you can have them all together on the so-called Drudge Report? For those looking to have their ears tickled, and their fears fed, come to the Drudge Report where you will be filled with everything the corrupt will have you consume. To say this is sad is a gross understatement. It is a failing of trust on a magnitude of the unmeasurable. A good friend of the people has left us and has instead gone on to continue to work against everything we love in good journalism. Drudge, once our pride, now our shame.

I have used the Drudge Report for years for my news. No more! Since Covaid-19 Drudge finds every story he possibly can that produces fear in Americans and dis-trust in our government. Of course I don’t believe everything the government tells us, but Drudge has taken it to new levels. BIG BOLD and red headlines every day how our country is falling apart over this and how our government is irresponsible and a failure. Just today a promising new treatment and possibly a cure was announced by the President; NOT ONE story of this in Drudge! He is too busy pointing readers to bad news. He has become a sensationalist, just another website seeking clicks, with no concern with balanced reporting. Might as well read the National Enquirer. Shame on you, Drudge. Look what you have become; once a very trusted news source to just another rag. Bye for good...one less click for you.

A ONCE GREAT And indispensable application has lost its way for a long time from over design. Nobody wants to use an application that is worse than a browser based solution. Here is a review from 2014 when the slide started: This was a quirky but functional app until late mid to late 2014 when it began to receive a rewrite. Now all of its features are gone, there are no configuration options and it is slower and more difficult to navigate than the Drudge repot website itself. Why Why Why? I am now saying goodbye to a product which ranked among my used apps. It was quirky, it was annoying, but it beat the heck out of using Safari on an iPhone. It no longer does and I now see no value add whatsoever to this app. Below was a review from the good old days when the App was very odd, but still functional: But this application does not respect iPhone inactivity and shutoff options. Don't see a way to fix this in the numerous settings. If there is one it is under a misleading name. Also there are many blank page issues which come and go with each release.

Just can’t understand why most links on Drudge now link to “suspect” and left bias news sites. What happened to media links that provide objective news and analysis? I can only assume that, in the words of the NYTimes, WPost, CNN and NBC, according to “highly placed media sources” and Twitter “journalists,” that only progressive media organizations and those sites that require subscription only access have paid Drudge to censure or ignore other news in order to generate clicks and attempt to increase the Drudge bottom line... hmmm... Well, it won’t work and Drudge is no longer first (or 2nd or 3rd or 9th) in the queue when acquiring information online. Shame. A once trustworthy source for media is now, well, nothing special.
