Poor sad Matt Drudge lost his influence this year, forever, and no one cares about him or takes him seriously anymore. This was his headline a couple minutes ago, until he lost the question mark. Still, the inference is there: this is an illegitimate win. Matt will now probably lead not the MSM but the crazier fringes of the opposition. Not so much the ones working to formulate a new, smarter conservatism, but the ones who just retreat further and further into conspiracy theories and nuttiness. Goodbye, Matt! We'll be back as soon as hurricanes threaten Florida! [Drudge Archives]

Despite the fact that it is genetically and physiologically impossible according to a scientist, a scientist predicts that in 40 years, all U.S. adults will be overweight. This terrifying study was published in the journal Impossible Alarmist Wake-up Calls Designed to be Picked Up by Science-Illiterate Mainstream Press Quarterly. [Reuters via Drudge]

If You Give Hamas a Cookie [Malaise]

Unlike certain grandfatherly former presidents, Matt Drudge hasn't yet forgotten the dark lessons of our shared childrens' book history. It starts with a hug, Jimmy—then Hamas will want a cookie. Soon you've handed over Israel to extremists, and then they'll just be thirsty for milk. American milk. [Drudge]

QUAKE, MATE! [Fantasy Tabloid]
Posted: February 27th, 2008, 11:18am CST by Nick Denton
Tags: Drudge Report
Web news maestro Matt Drudge, a disaster-loving British tabloid editor in his heart, takes last night's unusual earthquake in England as another opportunity to flaunt his headline-writing skills. "Quake, Mate" isn't bad. Though, if Drudge is going to play with London slang, take this, Miami mockney: "England Throws A Wobbly". Your round, in the comments! (Best so far: "Briefly, Earthquake Causes Briton's Teeth to Appear Normal".)

Drudge Hammers Clinton's Chapped, Pixilated Lips [Drudge]
Posted: January 7th, 2008, 9:06am CST
Tags: Drudge
Is this—Drudge's front page from early this morning through a minute ago—the final result of the unprecedented Drudge/Hillary powershare deal? It is kind of the logical end point of the "Drudge trademark unflattering photo amateurishly altered" game, and frankly both of them should quietly step down now. But oooh, now he's got a siren! (Previously: unflattering Clinton photo via Drudge, idem, idem)

Hillary flashing the crazy eyes remains marginally more important than rapidly spreading violent unrest in Pakistan, as has been the case since early this morning. Also: it is snowy in Chicago, there are a lot of immigrants, and a huge fucking tiger killed a guy! [Drudge]

Siren Song: Hatted Miami Weirdo Wields Great Media Power

Tags: Drudge
Even though he's never quite been able to match the profound national mindfuck he laid down when he went live with Monica Lewinsky a couple minutes before everyone else, Matt Drudge's bizarre story sense and predilections still drive the larger political media narrative. Except for his weird weather obsession. But when he puts a semi-comprehensible political headline in 72-pt. font, people take note. The fact that he's a weirdo Crypto-Liberti-Publican has always been something of a problem for the liberals who used to control the media, but now, finally, they have a candidate craven enough to play Matt's game: Hillary Clinton!While Drudge still gleefully links to every anti-Hillary story he can find (dirty Chinese money, people!!), he acknowledges that she's hugely entertaining and good for business. So Hill's using former DNC official Tracy Sefl to reach out to Matt and get him to occasionally push stuff that doesn't necessarily make Hillary look like the whore of Babylon. Like when they preempted Obama's Iraq speech with Hill's leaked fundraising numbers! She's rich and inevitable, enjoying giving your cute little war talk, hope boy.
The cutest part of this Times story is how John McCain was planning on "sending an emissary to Miami to build their own relationship with him" but Drudge never answered their emails. And no one wants to talk on the record about him because then he might stop linking to them!
As of right now, Drudge is leading with TERROR and WEATHER TERROR, always two of his favorite subjects, but he did find a way to connect the California wildfires to the Clinton campaign, with the typically charming headline, "As Fires Rage, Rob Reiner Sings For Clinton..." (the fires were "raging" some miles away from Reiner's Malibu home, but don't let that get in the way of a nice Nero image). So, uh, still kinda negative! The story about how all the Republicans were trashing her during their sad "debate" is basically about as neutral as Matt gets. Inconclusive!
Also! We briefly chatted with Ms. Sefl, who didn't cooperate with the Times piece and didn't have much to say to us either, even though we've been drunk with her. She did agree that it would be a good idea to try to figure out the magic Drudge-gaming formula and then maybe sell this formula to our boss Nick Denton for a couple million and retire from blogging or having to read about Matt Drudge ever again. It's a good idea!

Where's My Little China Girl: Hill's Money Chinese, Drudge Play Joke
Posted: October 19th, 2007, 10:40am CDT
Tags: Drudge
Uhh... "chop suey club?" What does that even mean? We know Hillary is a pawn of the Red Chinese Menace (or, in this case, the Chinatown Mob) but seriously, is this Drudge headline supposed to be like an oblique Amy Tan joke or something? Was "A Coolie $400 Grand" a little too extreme? Also: Drudge bonus points for "NOONAN: Hillary 'is the smile on the Halloween pumpkin that knows harvest is coming'... because an utterly insane, randomly-selected quote from any given Peggy Noonan column is basically the best idea for a regular post we've never thought of. -

It looks like the New York Observer has somehow yet to find a web host who can withstand a link from Matt Drudge. They're sort of like the goth girl of newspaper websites—when they get any attention they're all, "Oh my God don't look at me I'm so ugly!" Annnd crash. So while their politics desk continues to regularly get stories on the monster uber-crazy-blogger's website (today's apparently is "NY DEMS BAFFLED BY RUDY LEAD: 'I refuse to believe this could happen to our country'... "), their back-office continues to undermine their work. I bet that is really annoying!
